Death Carries a Cane

(1973)Directed by Maurizio Pradeaux91 minHorror, Mystery, Thriller
“Screaming can't save you from his steely blade.”

Two witnesses to a young woman's murder in Rome have been slashed to death, and the killer wears black gloves and uses a razor. Kitty (Nieves Navarro), a photographer who saw the crime herself, goes to the police with her fiancé Alberto (Robert Hoffmann) and learns she is next on the list. Maurizio Pradeaux builds the film on a plain fear: once you have seen a killing, you can't take it back.
