The premise
When it comes to crime, Belgrade is same as any other modern metropolis, except for having its own serial killers. That blank is filled when a flower salesman begins strangling women. A popular, but very disturbed rock star soon becomes telepathically connected with the killer.
Horror Vault's take
A meek Belgrade flower salesman harbors a murderous secret, preying on women in a city that fancies itself no different from any great metropolis — until it gets its very own serial killer. The chaos doubles when a troubled rock star develops an inexplicable psychic link to the crimes, blurring the line between fame and infamy. This Yugoslav cult oddity plays its disturbing premise with a sharp satirical edge, skewering both celebrity culture and civic self-importance. Equal parts unsettling and absurdist, it occupies a strange, singular space in European horror-comedy.
