Jazz pianist Marcus and reporter Gianna investigate the murder of a spiritual medium on their own. In the course of their research, they themselves become the target of the serial killer, who brutally pushes aside every witness and possible informant. The story of an old mansion, abandoned for many years, and its bloody history, which is closely interwoven with the murders, play a decisive key role.
Dario Argento
Dario Argento is an Italian filmmaker who has made a significant mark on the horror and slasher genre with films like Suspiria and Tenebre. Argento has created such a unique visual language with his extravagant stagings and recurring motifs – all of which revolve around the spectacular staging of murder – that stands out from the majority of directors in this genre.
