Marco Castellini •
San Francisco, a girl, engaged to a fortune teller, one day wakes up with a strange growth on her neck; she soon discovers that this metamorphosis is due to the spirit of an Indian sorcerer who has chosen her body to reincarnate. Science will come to the girl's aid. A strange horror: the idea of reincarnation-mutation is surely original, but after a good start, the film loses its way and becomes just another film.
