Young
schoolgirl Fiorella (Adriana Falco) is the daughter of a rich surgeon
named Doctor Andrea Icardi. She goes missing after lying to mom and dad
about her plans for the evening. Dr Icardi pulls his weight and the police
begin a massive search for the girl. A short time later, Fiorella's body
is discovered with a bullet in her brain near an isolated river. Homicide
Detective Fernando Solmi follows the clues which lead him to a teenage
prostitution racket. Before long, more teen deaths occur at the hands
of a black gloved killer and Detective Solmi's investigation turns more
and more sordid.
Mario
Caiano began directing his own projects in the late '50s after working
with a numerous filmmakers as scriptwriter and assistant director. He
made many successful Spaghetti Westerns [including LONELY
AND ANGRY MAN (1965), RINGO
FACE OF REVENGE (1966), FIGHTING
FISTS OF SHANGHAI JOE (1973)] but he was best known for helming
the Barbara Steele horror film NIGHTMARE
CASTLE (Amanti D'Oltretomb) in 1965 and EYE
OF THE LABRYNTH (1971). He would often use an alias, usually Alen
Grunewald or William Hawkins. As Hawkins, he made NAZI
LOVE CAMP 27 (1977), his last film before delving into the more
lucrative television venue. For 30 years, Mr Caiano directed an array
of Italian TV movies and mini-series projects, stopping only once in '88
to make Klaus Kinski's NOSFERATU
IN VENICE. Unfortunately, his involvement in that project was
ill-fated; after a major disagreement with Kinski, he was fired.
