Description
When two young lovers are savagely beaten and tortured on a back country road in Texarkana, local police are baffled. Three weeks later, two more people are slain in a similar setting and Deputy Norman Ramsey fears a pattern might be developing. Texas Ranger J.D. Morales (Ben Johnson, The Wild Bunch) is brought in to help. The two officers must find "the Phantom Killer" before he can kill again. Also starring Andrew Prine (Grizzly) and Dawn Wells (Gilligan's Island), directed by Charles B. Pierce (The Legend Of Boggy Creek), and based on one of America's most baffling murder cases, this horrifying suspense thriller is a shocking experience you'll never forget. Read more

Funny and scary
Reviewed in the United States on May 9, 2026 by Eddie Alexander
One of the most underrated Horror films of all time! Awesome!
I was so happy to see this movie finally to make it to dvd. It'[s been longer overdue. It should stand alongside Halloween, Black Christmas and Friday the 13th as one of the best slasher movies. It's based on a true story which adds to the fear factor. Academy Award Winner Ben Johnson gives the movie a touch of class acting and great hero to oppose The Phantom Killer. The movie can seem dated and the documentary style might not suite all viewers who like Friday the 13th, Halloween and others but the killer is scary. Before Jason ever wore his mask doing the heavy breathing the killer in this movie does it to a frightening effect. One of the scariest scenes in the film help's capture the viewer's imagination and realize there are killers out there who could be lurking right outside your home. It was a very terrifying scene. Dawn Wells does a great job in the movie too as most remember her from Gilligan's Island. The suspense is great as the victims are up against when they face The Phantom Killer. There is the classic Lovers Lane scene which is scary that satisfies any true horror fan as it is reminiscent of the classic Urban Legend about the man with the hook. One of the great dimensions to this film is the mystery of the identity of the killer. What are his motivations and what drives him. I really enjoyed the ending and was not disappointed. Like stated before the fact that this killer is real makes him all the more terrifying. This movie will scare you. It's a must see for any true horror movie fan. Cheers!

True Story of Real Crimes committed in the Texarkana area of Borderline Texas-Arkansas A Who-Dun-It
We have to remember that this Film was made a very long time ago--- when we didn't have a lot of abilities in productions. However--- regardless of that fact, this film puts the fear into everyone who sees it. Great story! Watch it if you get the chance! It is also a WHO-DUN-IT mystery. Never solved, so if you're a Sleuth like I am. All the more reason to see it! Just remember that IT IS DEEPLY DISTURBING. I'm actually working on Solving this Case presently (In Real Time...) *Cheers mates!* Sir Nicholas In Seattle of Vashon

You know this makes me want to SHOUT!
Or...scream and scream again! Thank you so much to SHOUT! FACTORY for these sensational new releases--finally the movie god seems to be smiling down upon the BluRay and DVD markets. The picture quality on this BluRay is fantastic--this title was made in 1976, and it seems to have a great quality of remastering. I enjoyed the audio commentary track (which is admittedly a bit dry), the trailers included, and the interviews with two of the film's stars were nice to watch. Plus, you get Brian Albright's excellent, if short, essay on the films of Charles B. Pierce--this is not a visual essay, you simply navigate through the prose with your remote control, but it is worth a read for genre/regional enthusiasts. The bonus DVD includes this title as well as THE EVICTORS, which, for my taste, is not quite a true horror film but is nonetheless fascinating in retrospect--this is technically how a horror film should be made (a sense of mystery, eerie music, little blood/gore but a lot of scares) and yet the end result is not technically "horror". As for "The Town that Dreaded Sundown," the widescreen transfer of this title appears to be the correct shooting aspect ratio, and the image is quite clear on a widescreen TV. Shout! must have done their homework on this one. Overall, it's another high quality presentation that I find little to complain about. As for the movie itself, I think that it will improve through repeated viewings, so don't be put off if you find that it isn't to your liking at first. I think the film is something of a neglected classic, despite the fact that (for me personally at least) it ended a bit abruptly and didn't seem to have a very long running time. Maybe it didn't need to be very long, however. In any case, it is a suspenseful movie, and worth adding to your collection if you like these old titles--the atmosphere is quite intense, and the characters are likable (well, most of the characters!). It is unfortunate that Pierce did not develop his directorial capabilities further, because his understanding of how to create mood and suspense seems to me to be genuine.

Atmospheric pre slasher era film.
(One of my favorite pre slasher era films) This original is a hidden gem among horror/true crime movies! I enjoy this movie for a number of reasons. Mainly because the charecters are flawed and make mistakes like real people, and the gritty feel of the movie. Based on true events makes this movie even creepier. After watching the movie you can research the actual case then it really gets crazy. One of my favorite movies in my collection now.

1970's Horror Classic 👍👍
The Town That Dreaded Sundown Released in 1977 is based on actual events that took place in 1946 in Texarkana Texas and Arkansas. This a classic in the slasher genre. This is a 2 disc Blu-ray/DVD combo pack. It also includes a bonus movie The Evictors from 1979 on DVD 👍👍From Texas T

Trombone Kill?
The trombone scene has got to be the most ridiculous kill in any slasher film. It's something I'd expect to see in Leprechaun, not this. I would have given it 4 stars but I was not expecting a bonus horror film which was really good. Despite the trombone kill scene, I'd totally recommend this!
