“A dark secret. A twisted mind. An insane desire for revenge.”

The premise
A young Romanian woman and a recovering drug addict launch an unlikely investigation after her parents are murdered by a vicious serial killer known as The Headhunter.
Horror Vault's take
When a brutal serial killer nicknamed The Headhunter begins leaving a trail of decapitated victims, a volatile young woman and a troubled recovering addict find themselves drawn into a dangerous personal investigation. Set against rain-soaked American streets, this late-period Dario Argento giallo blends visceral set pieces with a distinctly psychological undercurrent. The two leads forge an unlikely bond as their search for the truth cuts closer to their own fractured pasts. Fans of stylised, atmosphere-drenched slashers will find Argento's American-produced entry both lush and unnerving.
