A maniac on the loose is committing savage acts of slaughter, and one survivor may be the only key to unmasking the serial slayer known as the Half-Moon Killer.

Viewing Notes

A pretty cool underrated giallo I hadn’t seen. Another good atmosphere film with some hot women, staples of giallo. First half was much more striking than the finale but still a very fine film (when the disc played, it was in pretty bad shape). Plan to revisit again next year after viewing the interviews with Lenzi.
