Monster in the Closet (1986)

A monster is invading closets around the country, killing indiscriminately.  A new reporter who looks like Clark Kent, goes to investigate the story, hoping for a big break.  John Carradine plays a blind man who mistreats his dog and gets pulled into a closet as the dog watches.  

The military wants to kill it and a scientist wants to communicate with it.  Silly scientist... don't you know monsters can kill you?

But ultimately, the viewer is left with unanswered questions:  where did the monster come from; how did he get into the closet; what did he want;  and why did he carry Clark Kent around?
