Synopsis: This bizarre and brutal mystery follows a detective investigating the murder of a married couple. The trail leads to a sexually abusive and cocaine addicted husband while, at the same time, the insane killer is still at large committing multiple grisly murders. This gruesome giallo is notorious primarily for its extremely graphic scenes of horror. A perfect example of how a filmmaker can go too far in the quest to achieve the perfect blend of tension and repulsion.
