  • Complete Monster: Edward Byrd appears at first to be a charming if brutal repairman who saves the film's lead Alice by slaughtering a would-be rapist. Only after having fallen for him does Alice discover "Ed" is the ghost of an obsessive Serial Killer who haunts his perpetually unfinished house. Stirring Alice to murder, Ed convinces Alice to kill her husband's pregnant mistress with a nail gun, shortly before he personally crushes the husband's head in a vise. Ed even threatens Alice's innocent sister in the climax when she finally starts to bend out of his control.
