El regreso de Jack el Destripador

Ripper Man. This film stars MIKE NORRIS as MIKE LAZO,a former cop who now spends time working as a hypnotist. Although, he's trying to be successful as a hypnotherapist, he's been terrified by a stranger Charles (TIMOTHY BOTTOMS) who asks him to do a series of hypnosis test in order to bring out his other identity of GEORGE CHAPMAN who's real name of the infamous serial killer JACK THE RIPPER.

As the film goes, CHARLES becomes more and more sinister to this hypnotherapy test that his mental and physical attitude changes him to a man with a deceitful past killing women whoever he gets his hands on..

Although LAZO wants to stop him, he realises that CHARLES's personal attitude is becoming way too real.. Now that the clock is ticking LAZO must turn back to his former police officer action to track down CHARLES before the next victim falls..

For me, this film well is worth a watch but a bit boring in some parts.. Although it's entertaining, I think the whole plot is somehow being given away too much. I think viewers will see why as the film goes on, because by the time the film reaches the end, well..? You know what happens at the end, don't you..?

Dubious acting, direction and a tired story (about a killer on the loose) make for very lackluster viewing. Veteran actor Timothy Bottoms turns in an embarrassing over the top performance as the ripper - his hypnosis scenes and final monologue are unintentionally funny - and due to the cardboard nature of the characters, I couldn't care about any of them, including the "good" guys. Mike Norris is actually a better actor than his father Chuck, but he'll need better vehicles than this if his career is to prosper. As time killers go, this rates rather low. 3 out of 10.
