Dario Argento's second directorial effort (and the centerpiece of the "animal trilogy" of giallos--or mystery/thrillers--which includes BIRD WITH THE CRYSTAL PLUMAGE and FOUR FLIES ON GREY VELVET) is a murder mystery infused with the filmmaker's trademark graphic violence. Karl Malden stars as a blind man with a talent for solving puzzles who parteners with reporter Carlo Giordani (James Franciscus) to launch a private investigation into a string of strange murders, The killer soon becomes wise to the duo's plans and will do whatever it takes to stop them from reporting to the police.
