Richard Wentworth has investigated the grotesque slaying scenes: Xinda, Barbarian Queen crucified atop the Chrysler Building; a deadly re-enactment from hit animated series, North By Northwest Park at the Lincoln Center. The killer, a Satanic demon called Slaughter-house Skeleton, appears to be inspired by the foe from another popular TV series, Tiffany, the Werewolf Whacker! It isn't until Wentworth--as his masked renegade alter ego, the Spider invade the private estate of Steven Streisand that both realize how incredibly far-reaching and utterly devastating these brutal acts will become. Who is behind them and why?
