Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Made for anyone who likes to solve it before the characters do and crime fans. It plays fair with the clues, so you can play along. Fans of Dressed to Kill or Frenzy should feel right at home.
The mood
Scary, gritty.
The pace
Builds dread steadily, at 1 hr 25 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
What might put you off
  • It's in Spanish, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Made in 1975: an older pace and style.
  • Skip it if you like your heroes clean-cut.

A killer is cleaning up the streets of Milan by murdering those considered as deviant. An ornamental dragonfly, soaked in the blood of the victim, is left on each body.
