Torture. As disturbing as the subject is, it's even more disturbing to hear someone advocate it. Especially as eloquent a spokesperson as Tz'u-hsi (played by Beulah Quo), the late 19th-century Dowager Empress of China. But she's not alone - she's in a room with Frederick Douglass (Roscoe Lee Browne), who suffered unspeakable tortures in the years before the American Civil War, Marchese di Bonesana Cesare Beccaria (Robert Carricart), whose writings did much to discredit torture as official punishment, and the Marquis de Sade (Stefan Gierasch), whose views of torture are, literally, sadistic. Host Steve Allen plays umpire for a freewheeling discussion in this fourth volume of the great PBS television series.

After Jack the Ripper and before Son of Sam there was only one name their equal in terror: the deadly, elusive, and mysterious Zodiac. Beginning in 1968 the hooded mass murderer terrified the city of San Francisco and the Bay Area with a string of brutal killings. A sexual sadist, his pleasure was torture and murder. His first victims were a teenage couple, stalked and shot dead in a lover's lane. After another slaying, he sent his first mocking note to authorities, promising he would kill again. The official tally of his victims was six. The real toll may have reached 50. He was never caught. Graysmith, who was on the staff of the San Francisco Chronicle at the time of the murders, gives this gripping account of Zodiac's reign of terror.
