In the film a quiet town is uprooted by a series of murders committed by someone bent on revenge. John Landis (American Werewolf in London, “Thriller”) will be producing.
Alternate synopsis: A horror-comedy about a lonely, small-town loser who sets out to kill each of the men he deems responsible for his miserable life.
Review By Lauren Taylor: The alternate title for Harvey Hart’s 1973 film The Pyx is The Hooker Cult Murders. I think it has a nice ring to it, and is actually more entertaining than the film itself.
Elizabeth Lucy (Karen Black) is a heroin-addicted prostitute that happens to have just plummeted to her death. In her hand is a pyx – a small round-lidded box that is used to transport communion wafers to the sick and those who cannot attend church. Around Elizabeth’s neck is an inverted cross. Anyone who reads the description on the DVD case will know that a Satanic cult could be behind her murder. Henderson (Christopher Plummer, the pride of Canada) investigates Elizabeth’s death throughout the film as we go back and forth through time to discover who wants Elizabeth, and her ample mane, dead.

Two Academy Award nominated actors, CHRISTOPHER PLUMMER and KAREN BLACK, join forces in this suspense thriller about the murder of a prostitute with satanic overtones. Police sergeant Henderson (Academy Award nominee Christopher Plummer, SOUND OF MUSIC, STAR TREK VI, MURDER BY DECREE, SOMEWHERE IN TIME) investigates the murder of prostitute Elizabeth Lucy (Academy Award nominee Karen Black, FIVE EASY PIECES, DAY OF THE LOCUST, FAMILY PLOT). Around her neck she was wearing an upside down cross, and clutched in her fist, a locket, both unusal for a high class call girl. Will Henderson solve her murder?
First aired on March 4th, 1975: Three stories interwoven together in this Dan Curtis production starring Karen Black in each segment. The first, about a high school student infatuated with his teacher. The second, a paranoid tale of two sisters – one good, the other evil, and the third about an African tribal doll that comes to life and terrorizes a woman in her apartment.
Haunted house chiller from Dan Curtis has Oliver Reed and Karen Black as summer caretakers moving into gothic house with their young son. The catch? The house rejuvenates a part of it’s self with each death that occurs on it’s premises.
