Una farfalla con le ali insanguinate

1971 IT HMDB

When a young female student is savagely killed in a park during a thunderstorm, the culprit seems obvious: TV sports personality Alessandro Marchi, seen fleeing the scene of the crime by numerous eyewitnesses. The evidence against him is damning... but is it all too convenient? And when the killer strikes again while Marchi is in custody, it quickly becomes apparent that there's more to the case than meets the eye...

Marco Castellini

A journalist is wrongly accused of killing a little girl; during the trial, fortunately, he is acquitted by the discovery of two other corpses of young victims murdered in the same way as the first. Together with the police, he will track down the culprit. Mediocre thriller directed by a director not used to venturing into this genre; decent cast, acceptable screenplay but a plot that develops too slowly (endless the courtroom sequences...). Suitable only for genre lovers.
