Based on a true story, this film centers on a new prison guard at Leavenworth in Kansas, Henry Lesser (Robert Sean Leonard), who takes an interest in burglar and murderer Carl Panzram (James Woods), who has taken to a pad of paper to describe all of his heinous actions. The irreverant Panzram was a loose cannon all the way to his execution -- even pushing out a priest. Cara Buono portrays Esther, Lesser's wife.

Something is killing off townsfolk in Tarker's Mills. Something mysterious. Something ingenious. Something remotely human. But the only person in town with courage to stop this lurking menace is a 13-year-old boy, confined to a wheelchair since birth. Adapted to the screen by suspense master Stephen King from his "Cycle of the Werewolf" novelette, this exhilarating thriller features astounding special effects by three-time Oscar® winner Carlo Rambaldi ("E.T.," "Alien," "King Kong").
