Featuring an all-star cast, eye-popping special effects, non-stop excitement, action and laughs, MONSTER IN THE CLOSET pays homage to many of the great films of the horror genre. If you liked Mel Brooks HIGH ANXIETY, you’ll shriek with horror and humor at MONSTER IN THE CLOSET.  San Francisco is the scene of a series of bizarre murders and all the murders have taken place in the victims’ closets.  A local newspaper editor (Jesse White) sends his obituary writer Richard (Donald Grant) to follow up on what he believes is a routine story; meanwhile, the murders continue.  A lovely couple (Paul Dooley and Stella Stevens) as well as a blind man (John Carradine) fall victim to the MONSTER IN THE CLOSET.  When the monster finally decides to come out of the closet, the President declares a national emergency and sends the army, commanded by General Thurnbull (Donald Moffat) to destory it.  Scary, hilarious, madcap and totally unpredictable.  Monster in the Closet also two young performers who would go on to become major stars: Paul Walker (The Fast and the Furious) and Stacy Ferguson (Fergie from the musical sensation Black Eyed Peas).
