Tagline: Creepier than Jack the Ripper
Plot: A retired detective, Moretti (Max von Sydow), stricken with insomnia, is called upon to solve a series of murders, when it is found that a serial killer long thought to be dead has returned to wreak havoc on his old hunting grounds. His partner is one whom he met when he was a child, when his mother was killed by the serial killer. Now the fresh faced rookie, who has the aid of the latest technological equipment, is matched with old-fashioned police training, in order to help solve the murder mystery. The puzzles of the crimes seem to have a connection to a poem entitled "The Animal Farm", but where do they go from there?One of the major innovators of the horror film, Italian director Dario Argento (TENEBRE, SUSPIRIA) was one of the first auteurs to raise the previously dismissed genre to the level of art.

 So Argento has returned to his roots with this film and proves he hasn't lost his touch after almost 30 years. ... I'm sure in ten years it will be looked back on as one of his best films. 7/10--Ian Button (Diabolical-Dominion.com)
A good serial killer movie. Death scenes were very graphic and cool, but the plot lacked and so did some of the acting. I think you might have to be a Dario Argento fan to enjoy this movie. 7/10--FrighT MasteR (UHM)
Aside from Sydow, no performance is remarkable. The special effects are sometimes impressive. The mystery is actually a pretty good one, although I was able to predict who the killer was. In conclusion, it's a solid effort from Argento and probably one of the best fear films of 2001.-- (eSplatter.com)
