Jack’s Back
Directed by Rowdy Herrington
A serial killer copying Jack the Ripper’s murders is terrorizing Los Angeles. When John, a young doctor (James Spader) stumbles onto the killer doing his dirty work, he winds up the next victim. But at the exact moment of John’s death, his twin brother Rick (also Spader) wakes up from a nightmare in which he saw the murder clear as day. Soon he’s drawn into the twisted murder mystery, plagued by visions that won’t go away. Will Rick be able to catch the real killer - or join his brother six feet under? From the director of ROADHOUSE. Need we say more?

Not a bad movie but it always annoyed me how the movie actually has very little to do with Jack the Ripper at all and is actually a pretty minor aspect of the plot. It really does seem like the studio wasn't confident the twins-psychic-connection angle was a strong enough hook so they decided to play up the whole Jack the Ripper thing in all the ads and slapped that title on after the fact.
James Spader makes any movie good.
Great movie. I love some of the 80s movies. I seen this movie 6 times already with friends they also loved it
Loved it... love love love ❤️
Love James Spader so I was excited to watch this. Got bored though and stopped paying attention to the whole thing. Decided I’ll give it another go later on and left it on my list.
