When a break-in occurs at a secretive genetics institute, blind puzzle-maker Franco Arnò (Karl Malden), who overheard an attempt to blackmail one of the institute’s scientists shortly before the robbery, teams up with intrepid reporter Carlo Giordani (James Franciscus) to crack the case. But before long the bodies begin to pile up and the two amateur sleuths find their own lives imperiled in their search for the truth. And worse still, Lori (Cinzia De Carolis), Franco’s young niece, may also be in the killer’s sights… (Arrow Films)

The script is mediocre, even stupid at times. The story isn’t boring, but nor is it thrilling, it has none of Argento’s visual magic, the murders aren’t as sophisticated as it’s usual with him. After watching twelve of his seminal films, Argento's cult status escapes me entirely, and it's clear to me that the distinctive Fulci leads the pack in comparison.
