Leo Rossi hangs on to his action franchise by his fingernails, once more going through the motions of its conventional battles with psycho killers. After featuring a steady onslaught of nostril-flaring, scenery-chewing psychopaths in the previous three films--excitable boys Judd Nelson,

This time out, beautiful, naked female victims are being dispatched by an assailant whose MO involves recreating notable sacrificial rituals throughout history--Egyptian, Tibetan, Incan, etc.--in a sort of all-time greatest hits...
