Five Women for the Killer

CrimeHorrorMysteryThriller100 min

A reporter returns from an overseas assignment to find his baby in the hospital and his wife dead, forcing a homecoming into a murder mystery. Francis Matthews is the journalist at the center of the case, moving through shock, suspicion, and a widening circle of unanswered questions; Pascale Rivault and Giorgio Albertazzi are among the figures around the investigation. Made in Italy in 1974, the film follows the giallo tradition, turning a family tragedy into a chain of secrets, shifting stories, and mounting uncertainty over what happened before he came back.
