What happens

Too Scared to Scream (also known as The Doorman) is a 1984 American independent slasher film directed by Tony Lo Bianco. It stars Mike Connors (who also served as producer on the film), Anne Archer and Ian McShane, with a supporting cast of John Heard, Maureen O'Sullivan and Murray Hamilton. Too Scared to Scream was originally shot in 1981 and intended for a 1982 release, but was shelved due to the production company going out of business; it later premiered in 1984 and received a theatrical release in 1985.
