Right on target. This unconventional horror picture — and the first feature from Paper Moon director Peter Bogdanovich — draws a comparison between the real-life terror of the 1966 Charles Whitman University of Texas murder spree and the fictional horrors of Hollywood movies. The two converge in a brilliantly nightmarish climax at a drive-in. With Boris Karloff and Tim O'Kelly. Read the complete review for Targets
