Plots(1)
On the way to grandma's house because Mom was arrested for soliciting, young and enticing Vanessa runs into Bob Wolverton, a child psychologist who uses his professional expertise to gain her trust, and then reveals himself to be "The Big Bad Wolf" who is out to abuse, torture and kill pretty, innocent girls -- with Vanessa intended to be his newest victim. She manages to shoot her assailant a number of times, but instead of being killed, he's disfigured in such a manner that he now looks like what he truly is -- a monster. Vanessa is accused of attempted murder. She is to be put on trial but escapes -- right into the waiting arms of the Big Bad Wolf. (official distributor synopsis)
