Winter Kill, The (1974)
The ski resort Police Chief Sam McNeill protects is the target of a serial killer who leaves no clues except taunting messages spray-painted next to the bodies of his – or her – victims. Look for a fresh-faced Nick Nolte among the supporting cast.

    Comments about Winter Kill, The (1974) from Warner Bros.:

    This is a good 1970's made for TV movie. Andy Griffith does a good job and the story is acceptable. The biggest drawback is that this is a 70's TV movie. The music is dated and the story is a little cheesy by today's standards. It is still worth watching because it has a decent plot.

      Comments about Winter Kill, The (1974) from Warner Bros.:

      Beautiful setting. It was a nice, harmless murder mystry without all the gore of today's murder films. Nothing here to get grossed out or upset about. Just nice, pleasant murder most foul. Disk was a very good print.

        Highly recommend this movie. It is well transfered and has good sound, The film it self is very entertaining.
        It is nice to see Andy Griffith in something different than Matlock or his 1st show.
        Buy if you like 70s mystery movies.

            I remember seeing this so long ago, and wanted to see it again, and add it to my collection. Theo ne thing it didn't have was Closed Captioning. I know most of these older movies didn't have it back then, but surely it could be done with those of us who are hearing impaired in mind. Still the story was good, and it kept you guessing til the end.

              Thanks for helping us add this great movie to our collection. Beautiful filming at Big Bear Lake, in the beautiful Golden State. Always a fan of Andy Griffith whether comedy or drama.

                Comments about Winter Kill, The (1974) from Warner Bros.:

                My (perhaps unusual) childhood was spent watching more "Matlock" and "Murder, She Wrote" than anything aimed at my age group. I remember seeing this on TV when it reran in the late '80s or early '90s. I had a very distinct memory of key scenes and the look and feel of the film. I was so pleased to find it available and even more pleased when it turned out exactly the way I remembered it. It is a good mystery movie and typical of its era.

                  I saw this movie several years ago and I am glad to have it on DVD. It is a cross between the Andy Griffith "local sheriff" and "Matlock" and is very entertaining and different from his usual roles. I highly recomend it to anyone who likes a good mystery.

                      This is a great TV movie. Would like to see the Second in the series on DVD, "The Girl in the Empty Grave".
