Timothy Bottoms plays a disturbed young man who plants radio controlled bombs in amusement parks, centered on the rollercoasters. After demonstrating his skill and determination, he contacts the park owners with ransom demands of large cash payments, or he will destroy more parks, putting them out of business. The FBI gets involved, and investigator Harry Calder(played by George Segal) gets involved as a go-between with the bomber, as he also tries to track him down to stop his madness.
Highly entertaining yarn has a good cast of characters, and direction by James Goldstone is taut and exciting, with good model effects and an interesting(if vague) story. Watch out for a young Helen Hunt, cast as Harry's teenage daughter.
