Peter Masterson. Producers Producers. Joe Regan George Litto.The saxaphone is shredding, Roy Scheider is sexing & searching, and a serial killer is slashing & slaughtering in this late 80s thriller involving Major League Baseball, Night Game. With bloody killings and police procedure all-throughout, a goofy cat-and-mouse plot and one hell of a cast of character actors, Night Game is a solid second base to triple base run of a cop vs. killer picture. If you're a Roy Scheider fan, this baby is an essential watch.
Night Game is a minor thriller that ventures into Psycho Film territory. It is a film that was hardly released when it came out and has failed to gain much more of a reputation since then. Which could well be due to its title, which is so generic that it is easily missed amid a host of other titles with nearly the same name. Night Game is one of several variants on the Police Procedural. In these films, the central character is an investigating detective unravelling the trail of clues that lead to a serial killer, where the killer of the show features as a shadowy nemesis who is never explored much.
