This Italian giallo follows the standard formula pretty closely and gets a bit draggy in large chunks. You get your typical black-dressed, black-gloved, razor-wielding maniac slicing up women with artistic flair and a musical accompaniment. It's also a mystery that's wrapped up in the regular manner after throwing you a whole bunch of red herrings. Pretty much all the tropes are here with the exception of making the killer a cripple who needs a cane to get around. This will probably only interest hardcore giallo connoisseurs but there are worse things you could view.
There's a bunch of AKA's including DEATH CARRIES A CANE, MANIAC AT LARGE, THE TORMENTOR, TRAUMA and DEVIL BLADE.
