Synopsis
The Night Stalker (1972) is a cult TV horror movie you can watch online on iFILM. Across nighttime Las Vegas, young women keep turning up drained of every drop of blood. The police hunt a serial killer. Burnt-out reporter Carl Kolchak hunts a vampire — and turns out to be right.
Darren McGavin plays Kolchak as a rumpled newsman in a battered straw hat whom nobody believes: not his editor, not the sheriff, and certainly not a mayor who wants no talk of the undead loose in his gambling town. The closer Carl gets to the truth, the harder the authorities work to bury his story. It all plays out between neon casino floors and the morgue, where he pieces the case together from clues everyone else laughs off — until he has to walk into the killer's lair himself, cross and stake in hand.
Richard Matheson wrote the script from Jeff Rice's unpublished novel, and the film became the highest-rated TV movie in America at the time, spinning off its own Kolchak series. The X-Files grew straight out of this: Chris Carter openly called Kolchak the grandfather of Mulder. It still moves well today — dry wit, noir texture, and a hero who could beat any monster on sarcasm alone. Stream The Night Stalker (1972) online on iFILM.
