Writer/director Umberto Lenzi helmed popular peplums, created extreme poliziotteschi, and invented the Italian cannibal phenomenon. Hollywood actress Carroll Baker was the Oscar-nominated star of BABY DOLL, GIANT and THE CARPETBAGGERS. Together, at the dawn of the giallo, they made four landmark films that would forever alter the Italian genre landscape.
From its opening Edgar Allen Poe quote to the insane climactic twist, this fourth and final Lenzi/Baker collaboration finds Baker as a traumatized mute stalked through the Spanish countryside by a black-gloved maniac who may be a Satanist!
