Cry for the Strangers
1982, English. Directed by Peter Medak.
Violent Storms can unleash powerful forces, some calming... some deadly.
The little coastal town of Clark's Harbor seems like the perfect place for psychiatrist Brad Russell and his wife to get a little peace and spend more time with each other. But the locals don't seem very friendly and every time a storm rolls in another mysterious death occurs... Could an ancient Indian legend of ghostly tribes and human sacrifice have anything to do with it?
