THE FIFTH CORD (1971)


  Franco Nero plays a drunk reporter trying to solve a string of murders because civilians doing police work is a weird staple of giallos. This is based on a novel and it's a bit slow and talky. There is a creepy scene towards the end when a little boy gets stalked by our mysterious killer which was the most memorable bit to me. Franco's excellent acting does make it more enjoyable than it otherwise would be though. This was also known in the U.S. as EVIL FINGERS which makes more sense since the killer cuts off one finger of a glove that he, or she, leaves at each murder scene.
