PLOT: An Aztecan cult is loose in Chicago and enacting rites of human sacrifice by cutting out people's hearts. Kolchak traces the final sacrifice to a hunky Aztec descendent (Erik Estrada) who gets to live-it-up for his final year. The ritual will supposedly give life to a creepy mummified corpse and usher in the Apocalypse (or some mumbo jumbo like this).
COMMENTARY: This one's memorable for Estrada as Pepe Torres, two & a half years before his debut in the iconic CHiPs. It's also notable for the three hotties that attend to Torres' every whim: Vicky (Sondra Currie), Nina (Merrie Lynn Ross) and Lona (Dorrie Thomson), but the story drops the ball by mostly ignoring them, with only Currie getting much screen time. The mummy is well done.
