No!

No!

No!

No!

Great! Congrats Daniel, not bad at all!

Thank you.

Do you really think that if
I'll shoot her next MV,

she's going to be successful
here in America?

Yes, of course!

You don't know her, but in Italy,
Stefani a Stella is very popular.

Her latest album sold 700,000 copies.

And in Italy is a huge number.

And who's fucking her,
it's you or the producer?

Knock it off, it's my girlfriend.

- Sorry, I didn't mean to...
- It's okay, whatever.

The title track is "Eternal City".

And we want it to be a blast.

The MV budget is $1 million.

And you got 100 grand

for ten days of work.

Listen, I've never been in Italy,

and your offer is appealing...

So, yes, I'm gonna do it.

That's great, Alex.

I'm very happy,
you're gonna enjoy Rome.

It must also be a holiday for you.

I think you need some time off.

- Sorry, I'm over talkative.
- No, don't be.

You're right, it's true.

I'm still living here,
do you wonder why?

No, I don't know.

Because I can't let her go.

Look...

Do you see this?

It's her blood...

It's all I have left of her.

Sorry, I didn't know.

No, don't worry.

I think a vacation will do me good.

Okay.

Alex!

- Hey, how're you?
- Did you have a good trip?

- Totally, thank you.
- Good, glad to know.

Come this way.

Stefania's waiting in the car,
she wanted to meet you right away.

- I'm flattered.
- Are you tired or you managed to sleep?

No.

- Then you need a coffee.
- No, thank you.

Come on!

I already had four on the plane.

All right.

- Is that?
- Yes.

Excuse me, sir, please...

...give me some money, I'm hungry.

Come on, leave us alone.

- But he's my friend, right?
- It's okay, don't worry.

- I take care of it.
- He seems to be more thirsty than hungry.

- Here you go, have a drink on me.
- Thank you very much.

What?

- What's wrong?
- No, no, no.

Come on, can't you see he's drunk?

Just a little drunk!

No, no...

Forget him!

Come on, let's go.

Alex...

This is Stefani a.

Hi, Alex, it's a pleasure to meet you.

Hi, Stefani a! Let's go!

I've seen your MV several times
and there's something important,

I'm very interested in your
European vibes.

I think we'll do a good job together.

I'm sure of it.

This will be the most
important job of my life.

Although I confess that the idea
frightens me a lot.

Why?

If I'd thought that I made a masterpiece,

it would make no sense to keep going,

it's better give up,
don't you think so?

I don't know, no.

What I'm saying is,

I think when you're working

with images, it's like working
with the dead.

You shoot a video, and what do you have?

The real moment you shot,
erases itself.

You have the frames,

the only re-enactment of reality.

This is our producer, Mr Marini.

Nice to meet you, Mr Ritt.

In short, it must be an all-Italian video.

Except for the director...

Rome is wonderful, and will give
an amazing background to the MV.

It's much more photogenic than Venice,

where "Like a Virgin" was badly shot,

a wasted opportunity, disgusting.

All they showed us

was a shabby canal,

but it would have worked
the same in Amsterdam,

there was nothing reminding Italy, nothing,

maybe it was not needed,
since it was Madonna's.

Stefani a is another story.

She's different as a character.

By the way, Alex, have you
heard "Eternal City"?

- Yes, of course.
- And what you think about it?

I like it, otherwise, don't worry,

I'd never have agreed to direct the video.

I found your interpretation... intense.

Thank you, I really like
to be defined... intense.

I think it's a great compliment.

And I like intense people.

Passionate...

I find them extremely seductive.

Sorry, it's late,

I need to go, the costume designer
is waiting for me.

- We'll see you later.
- Sure, later.

Bye, bye.

- Bye!
- Bye, Stefani a.

- Bye!
- Bye!

As you are here, you can take
a look at these pictures,

just to get an idea.

And before going to the hotel,
I'd like Daniel

- to introduce you to the crew.
- Sure.

You're gonna meet our art director,

who did an excellent job,

then you'll tell me
what you think about it.

Let's go.

Ah, this is Greta,
she's part of the cast.

She's one of the dancers
in Stefania's MV.

- We were waiting for you, Mr Ritt.
- Do you want to work with me?

Sure, I can't wait.

Later we'll have a meeting,
to get to know each other.

- You too, Greta.
- Okay.

- See you.
- Bye.

Bye!

What do you think, do you like her?

Yes.

What? Very good...

That's good, Stefani a.
Stay still!

Just like that!

Good!

All right, perfect!

I'm Mm busy, so you'll show Alex the studio.

Okay.

- Do me a favor, huh?
- Okay.

Twenty one...

...twenty two...

...twenty three...

...twenty four...

...twenty five...

Wouldn't you be better off at the gym?

No, it's quieter here, or at least
it was until a moment ago.

Sorry to bother you.

Are you part of the cast of "Eternal City"?

Look, I'm working, so, please...

Sorry, I'm leaving right now.

See you tomorrow.

- I don't think so...
- No, wait...

...I meant on the set, I'm the director.

I'm Alex Ritt.

Oh, gosh, but you are...
I'm sorry, I don't know what to say...

I'm Rebecca.

Well, at least now I know
you're a disciplined professional.

- You're not Italian, are you?
- No, no.

- Georgia?
- Virginia.

Virginia, right.

- Do you like here?
- Sure, Rome is a beautiful city.

How can I say, it's amazing,

wherever there's art and history.

Do you mind showing me around?

Sure, why not?

As of tonight...

Okay.

Where?

Sant'Angelo Castle, we can start
from there... at midnight?

- Okay.
- All right!

- Are you worried?
- It's too late now, isn't it?

What do you think about our friend?

I don't know, maybe
I imagined him differently,

but I must say he's magnetic,
he's a charming man.

Alex!

Rebecca!

- Alex, run!
- Rebecca, is it you?

Hurry up!

Rebecca!

Where the hell are you?

No, please, no!

No, please!

No!

No!

No!

Stop it!

Stop it!

Police, come with me right now!

- But who is this?
- Do you hear me?

- There's a murderer!
- Stop!

You're drunk, huh?

-Don't you get I, he Kills her!
- Don't move!

- He's tearing her apart!
- Stay still, asshole!

- Don't move!
- But always at night!

What are you doing,
don't you hear me?

- Let's go and see.
- Hurry up!

She's up there!

He's tearing her apart,
he's slaughtering her!

Come on, hurry up!

She was right here,
I saw here, she was dead!

- There's nobody here!
- That lunatic slaughtered her!

I don't understand.

- She could have run out that way.
- Yeah, yeah.

- Okay, you're crazy, let's go.
- No, no!

- Let's go to the station, come on!
- I'm telling you, she was here.

Come on, move!

Get in the car!

Get in the car!

Daniel, I know, it's late...

...but I'm in trouble,
do something, please.

Mr Ritt, you're not in trouble,

at least not at the moment,
do you mind explain it again?

- I've already told you about it...
-Yes, I know...

...but you have to admit
that your story is absurd,

and there's no proof that is real.

There was nobody.

No one saw or heard anything,
except you.

There was no trace of blood

and it's quite unusual,
but trust me, Mr Ritt,

I have no reason to doubt
your good faith,

but it could have been a prank.

I wonder if we go back
on the crime scene,

things will be clearer.

That's the infamous gate?

Yes, that's it.

You said it was closed.

It was.

Let's suppose that the killer run away

bringing the corpse with him,

if a corpse exists...

Sure, it was hard to see from over there.

Anyway, once he got to the moat,

think about it, how could he have dragged

the body up...

Alex, I couldn't find Rebecca anywhere.

Stop it, okay?

And tell this people
that I'm not crazy.

Rebecca was Killed,
I fucking saw her!

- Mr Antonucci?
- Yes.

You're the Commissioner.

Do you know the alleged victim?

Yes, she's a member of our cast.

She has to shoot an MV with us.

Exactly, we're gonna shoot it,

but I think Rebecca won't be in it anymore.

There's nothing here,
but we'll keep digging.

Don't leave without telling me, Ritt,

and as for you, I think we'll have
a little chat at the station.

Okay.

Hello, Police Station of Rome,
Borgo precinct.

- You lost a corpse, did you?
- Hello, who is it?

It doesn't matter...

Let's see, there's a dead girl,
but only I can see her...

She's so beautiful, so defenseless...

Right now she's in Piazza Mincio,
next to a phone...

She's beautiful, and covered in blood,

because I'm tearing her apart!

Incredible, but at least we know
that Ritt didn't make anything up.

Your story is in full accord with the film...

I've been a cop for many years,
I've investigated hundreds of murders,

but I've never seen anything like this.

You rule out that the American himself...

Right now I cannot rule anything out...

But why send us a tape
that could incriminate him?

Who knows, maybe he's a maniac,
and maniacs don't act logically.

I asked about him and the girl, let's see.

There's not a single print on the tape, obviously.

But in the case, there was
a strange filamentous material.

And the video is in PAL format,
which is only found in Europe.

Alex, this is my brother Luca.

- He's a big fan of yours.
- Hi!

- He will be at your disposal.
- All right.

Let's go, come on.

Mr Ritt...

Mr Ritt...

How come you didn't tell us
the Killer filmed the victim?

Oh, Christ... because I didn't know.

I haven't seen anyone filming.

I told you, I ran for help.

Maybe after...

How long did it take you
to get back there with the cops?

A few minutes?
And yet there was no one there.

No killer, no victim...

Isn't it strange?

Perhaps we should review
the sequence of the events.

- I'm not sure that...
- Wait a minute...

I don't care if you're sure or not.

I am a guest in your country and
I am here to do a job,

by chance I witnessed a murder,

and you treat me like
I'm an accomplice to the killer

or even the killer himself.

Calm down.

No one questions your word,
no one suspects you.

The fact is that there are too many

dark corners in this story, if you
tell us the whole truth instead of...

The truth is, I just met that girl,

it was our first date.

And believe me,
I'm shocked how Rebecca died,

but I had nothing to do with it,
so stop bothering me!

Besides, I'm working, so excuse me!

You might want to talk to me...

otherwise, you'll have to talk to
Commissioner Valenti and Dr Lucidi.

Okay, Alex, calm down.

Don't worry, okay?

And I assure you, they're much less
likable than I am.

Did Daniel tell you about our friends?

Yeah, he told me they're a little weird,

- devoted to the occult.
- Yes. Here's Palazzo Mirafiori.

It's beautiful, isn't it?

That's where countess
Alessandra Mirafiori lives.

She doesn't pay the electric bill?

The Countess rejects all that we call

the advantages of science and technology.

No phone, no light, so no appliances.

Good evening, Miss,
we were waiting for you.

Good evening, Amilcare.

Good evening, Miss,
we were waiting for you.

When I'll go back to New York,
and I'll tell about this,

I swear, no one will believe me.

No, no one.

Contess...

Stefani a, is it you?

How are you, Alessandra?
You look gorgeous tonight.

We took the liberty of bringing
a friend with us.

I know you.

- I'm Alex Ritt, I don't think we...
- I know you.

Yes, I know you,
because I know how to see

things that you don't even imagine.

I have always lived in darkness
and I know all its creatures.

You have no idea what you can see

when you learn to look beyond yourself.

Your soul is like a web of threads of blood

hanging over an endless abyss.

But I'm not afraid.

And you, Alex, are you afraid?

Aren't you a little afraid of yourself?

Well, no, actually, you're scaring me.

Me?

No, Alex, I'm just a mirror.

Stefani a, honey, take your friends
to the yellow room.

Tamara is waiting for you.

That woman is dreadful.

She gave me the creeps.

What a crazy situation!

Sometimes her words seem meaningless,

but she's not crazy.

She's digging inside you,
looking at your soul.

You should look at yourself, too,

with her blind eyes,
maybe you'll find out

what you're still ignoring about you.

What do you mean?

Nothing, nothing.

Any news on Rebecca?

- Rebecca?
- Yes!

- Rebecca, the dancer?
- Yes.

Rebecca was murdered last night.

Oh, my God! It's horrifying!

- Good evening, Tamara.
- Hi, there.

This is our friend.

He's American, he's name it Alex Ritt.

- It's a pleasure.
- Alex, the American...

- Beautiful, American, beautiful.
- So, where are the cards?

Don't tell me you don't have them!

Oh, no, no tarots cards today.

Are you reading our hands?

I'm calling the spirits, more money,
I'm calling the dead, I'm good at it!

I call them, and they answer.

Shall we?

Alex...

No!

What a crazy idea!

No!

Tamara... I'm ready.

- Are you sure?
- Yes.

Okay.

Let's begin.

Now, think about your dead friend.

Think hard.

Use your heart as a very strong voice.

So strong as to wake her
from her sleep of death.

Our Father in heaven, hear our prayers.

Let my voice reach you.

Let my voice reach your souls.

May souls hear my voice.

May souls hear my call.

Who are you?

There's no peace, I've no peace...

Just pain, infinite pain, pray for me.

Rebecca, is it you?

You know who I am,
you know my suffering.

Help me find peace.

Yes, you are Rebecca.

It's dark and cold in here.

It's really cold.

You tore me apart, you wanted me to die.

You'll be punished for this.

Alex Ritt!

You're a murderer!

Oh, my God! Rebecca...

You killed me...

No!

No, stop it! It's not true!

No!

What's all this?

What's this nonsense?

What the fuck do you want from me?
Why are you want me involved?

They paid you? Answer me!
Who wants to fuck with me?

Answer me!

- Hello?
- Alex Ritt?

Yes?

It's Tamara, do you remember me?

Yes, I do, what the fuck do you want?

Who gave you my number??

- I can explain, we're in danger...
- What do you mean?

We have to meet right now,
we're in danger!

- Where are you?
- At the Colosseum...

- Who told you about Rebecca?
- Come right now, I'll tell you...

But...

F.B.I. report, case n. 126539,

called "Video Killer".

June/July "92 - New York.

Five women killed, bodies never found...

The killer was never arrested.

Open case, the only traces are
video tapes of the murders,

certainly shot by the killer himself.

Does that ring a bell?

Oh, Christ... yes!

The five victims seem to be randomly chosen,
with nothing in common.

Except for their beauty...

But...

...here, look at this...

...the victims"' list.

- Isabel Ritt!
- Exactly!

The third victim was the wife

of our "friend" Alex Ritt.

Take the file to Commissioner
Valenti and Dr Lucidi.

I can't wait to hear their thoughts
about this strange "Video Killer".

- Hello...
- Beautiful night, isn't it, Alex?

- Who are you?
- Perfect for getting to work.

What the hell do you want
from me, motherfucker?

Damn you!

Tamara!

- I see her too, let's start!
- No, wait! Damn you!

Tamara!

Tamara!

Tamara!

Stop!

Where are you going? Tamara!

No!

Stop it!

Wait, stop, slow down!

- Do you see the lights?
- No, where?

There, look closer.

Don't you see anything?

Nothing significant,
just a flickering fog.

I don't know...

And we still don't know
who's the victim.

According to the report, that mark
found on the videotape case

was made with the same marker,

a blue Veleda, this time.

So what?

It's a very common marker,
I don't think it matters.

Commissioner here a telex
for you from F.B.I.

Yes? It's Lucidi, who is it?

Good morning, it's Bonelli,

we're about to receive a visit,

Professor Robinson from the F.B.I.

Yes, I know.

He's already in Rome,
and he's coming to my office.

I know him.

In America, he solved
several similar cases.

The Americans thought

that their old friend

is an immigrant across the Atlantic.

It's better this way, he'll help us.

So will we cooperate with the Americans?

The other way around, I think.

Come on, don't sulk, Bonelli.

It's an honor to work with the F.B.I.

You can learn a lot.

Yes, sir, I'm coming right away.

Look at that!

Do you see that rectangle?

Looks like the subway station sign.

I'm almost sure, no, I'm sure!

Wait, this looks familiar.

Sure, it's at the intersection of Via Cavour
and Via dei Fori Imperiali,

so given the angle, the murder happened...

At the Colosseum!

Bravo!

It was an angle error...

Assuming he started here,
while filming her,

he shot the sign by mistake.

Commissioner, look at this.

What the hell happened to her?

Yes, we know her.

Why, what happened?

She was murdered like Rebecca.

Same "modus operandi”.

Tamara... no...

It's not true, I can't believe it.

Do you know who killed her?

No.

We didn't find the body or
traces of blood.

We only have a false and expired I.D.

And a note with a phone number.

The one you rented for Alex Ritt.

Commissioner Valenti, it's Lucidi.

I'm waiting for you at my office
to discuss the investigation.

Professor Robinson will also be here,
and I hope he'll clarify

some aspects of this case.

Tell Commissioner Bonelli
about this meeting.

And bring him up to speed.

But first, let's meet Alex Ritt.

He's at Trevi fountain, shooting
the MV of Stefani a Stella.

Come on, Valenti, let's do this.

Mr Ritt, I'm Commissioner Valenti,

and this is Dr Lucidi
who's investigating your case.

Nice to meet you, Mr Ritt.

I was just wondering
what happened to you.

Think how convenient it would be for us
to conduct the investigation,

if the victims could return
from beyond the grave

and report their Killers.

What do you mean, I don't understand.

I think otherwise, Mr Ritt.

So, Rebecca's ghost appears
and accuses you of being

responsible for her death.

And as it happens, just two hours later,

medium Tamara gets killed.

- It's horrible!
- Horrible, my ass!

Two girls were killed in two days,

and whether you're the "Video Killer”
or you're dragging him along,

you're up to your neck in this.

I don't know what you're talking about.

Seriously?

Then why you didn't tell us
about the American "Video Killer"?

Yeah, I kind of feel responsible
for these deaths.

I don't know who the killer is,
but I know he's stalking me.

Then why didn't you cooperate
with the police right away?

You didn't tell us everything,
or maybe it wasn't about you,

like your wife's death,

since you were getting divorced.

Look, Dr. Lucidi,

I came to Italy for work,

if you have any proof against me,
then arrest me!

If not, leave me alone!

I know you're doing your job,
and I'm doing mine!

Fuck it, I didn't expect a better reaction.

We're almost all here,
they're coming.

- Hi, Alex

Hi, you did great, amazing!

- Thank you, Alex.
- See you.

Daniel, you fucked up!

If this is all a nightmare,
I hope it'll end soon!

Hey, what do you mean, Alex?

Did you see me talking
with Dr Lucidi, right?

Was it necessary to tell him

that I was at Countess Mirafiori's
house that night?

Whose side are you on, huh?

If Daniel had tried to protect you

he would only aggravate the situation.

Yeah, okay, maybe you're right.

I told you to tell Bonelli
about the "Video Killer".

I know.

- Alex, see you later, bye.
- See you.

Bye.

- I'm sorry for this mess.
- What?

This is serious, don't you realize

there's a crazy man out
there trying to kill me?

It's clear that he's stalking me,

but what the hell does he want from me?

You should take a couple of days off.

No, don't you get it?
I'm sick of it!

I have nothing to do with this
and I don't want to know about it.

I need you to get me a lawyer,

to help me break the contract
so I can go home. I'm sorry.

You need me more
than a lawyer, Mr Ritt.

-And who you are?
- I'm Wendy Williams.

And I'm a parapsychologist.

Ah, great, I really needed it!

Trust me, I can be helpful.

I called her, talk to her,
she's my friend.

Mr Ritt, give me a chance,

let's go back together
to Mirafiori palace,

it'll take me five minutes to know

how they did the trick of
Rebecca's ghost.

If, it was a trick.

Miss Williams, it's very kind of you

to offer your help,
but I'm looking for a lawyer.

I want to leave Italy
and go back to the States.

Do me a favor, Daniel,
find me a lawyer.

And when you've found him, call me.

Any time, because I wanna
leave by tomorrow.

Mr Ritt...

In case you'll change your mind...

The first victim, Gina Lorenzi.

She was a dancer.

When her roommate

reported her missing,

the police already had the videotape.

The body was never found.

Rita Stefanich, the second victim,

Yugoslav immigrant.

She was identified immediately,
thanks to mug shots.

She had some unfinished
business with justice.

Third victim, Isabel Fair brain.

She was 27, she was a model
and Alex Ritt's wife,

they got married in 1990.

The murder happened in broad daylight
in her apartment in Manhattan.

No one saw or heard nothing.

Isabel Fair brain Ritt... Christ!

- She was beautiful.
- Indeed.

And she was rich too.

- She looks like a child.
- Yes.

She was so young.

Fourth victim Jessica Britain,
36, stockbroker.

Her lover reported the missing.

A girl of 19.

She was killed in a motel in Brooklyn.

Maybe the "Video Killer" picked her up,

but we have no clue to confirm it.

Inge Konsoliuk, 22, German.

She was on vacation in the States.

We found her ID,
but no trace of her.

This was also on the crime scene.

What is it?

A mask, maybe the Killer
was wearing it,

but the fingerprints were the girl's.

He could have ripped it out
of his face during the fight.

Or maybe the killer lost it on the run.

He wore it and then killed his victims.

Like a butcher!

Many years ago, I shot a commercial,

fortunately, no one remembers it.

- Not even your friends?
- No, thank God, no.

I wasn't even 18.

So, you were already in the show business.

For a commercial?
Are you kidding me? No!

If you'll come to visit me in New York

I'll take you to Ray's Pizza,
the best in the States.

- Of course, I know it!
- So, you've been in New York.

Yes, I lived there for a while,
and now I go there for work.

If you're in the music business

- it's almost a must.
- Not a pleasure?

No, I wouldn't say so.

- Really?
- Yes!

I hate New York,
but I have my reasons.

You shouldn't have said it, New York
is the most beautiful city in the world,

don't say you hate it anymore,

I could Kill for this.

- Really?
- Well, I'm just saying.

- However, it's true...
- What?

That Ray makes the best pizza in America.

- Let's make a toast.
- To what?

To this night...

What's so special about it?

- It's my last night in Rome.
- Are you kidding, right?

I didn't get a chance to tell you, but,

listen, maybe you don't know,

there's some crazy guy stalking me.

No, I didn't know.

I don't know what Daniel told you
about my past.

But, believe me, I'm in trouble.

I can't stay, I'm so sorry.

Alex, you signed a contract.

And I don't think that the police
will let you leave.

I still have my passport,
and I can go to the American embassy.

Don't worry, I'll find a way.

So you're not making my video?

I'll talk with Anna and Marie,
and I'll give them my notes,

and I'll try not to cause you any trouble.

Believe me, Stefy, the last thing
I want is to hurt you.

My concern is that
the "Video Killer" or his copycat,

could kill again.

What exactly do you mean by "copycat"?

It's not to be excluded that
the murderer who kills in Rome

is a fan of the "Video Killer",

and by using his own technique

he's reproducing here in Rome
crimes identical to his,

in the spirit of emulation.

Maybe, because Ritt is here.

A kind of an exhibitionist.

A maniac seeking Ritt's approval.

Or he's killing like him,
to pay his respects.

Why not?

Can I have a look at
the notes on the videotapes?

Who knows, maybe the answer is here.

Sometimes the police make misjudgments,

and they don't take into account
that a psychopath,

in a way, wants to be stopped,

that's why he leaves traces,

and details, that carefully studied,

could lead to his arrest.

Tamara was killed inside the Colosseum,

where in the afternoon
they shot some scenes of the MV.

Let's see, where was killed Rebecca?

- Did they shoot in Sant'Angelo castle?
- No, no.

Filming had not yet started that day.

Right, but the first scene
was scheduled to be there.

Look, it's in the script.

Wait a minute!

If the maniac acts according
to this pattern,

we could assume that the next crime

will take place at Trevi Fountain.

That's where they shot today.

Let's send a car!

I want the passengers list
of the flight Ritt came to Rome on.

If it is true he's a copycat,

who has been following
him since the first murders,

maybe he traveled with him.

- Do you live here?
- Yes, in this building.

Do you want to come up for a drink?

Are you sure?

Of course.

- Okay, then...
- Let's go.

I was in a film shoot in Los Angeles,

and the F.B.I. contacted me
saying my wife had been killed.

The Killer stripped her and then
chopped her head with a machete.

The scene was shot with a camera

and then the tape was sent
to the police.

It was the third in a series
of similar murders.

The weapon is always a machete.

All the murders were filmed.

So, are you afraid of me?

- No, I'm not.
-Ah, I forgot...

...you are not afraid of anything, right?

Or as you say, you don't
run away from what scares you.

It's a dangerous game, you know?

But at the same time, exciting.

Yes...

You know, you and I have
a lot more in common than...

...I imagined.

Yes...

Yes, okay.

Are you not tired yet, Commissioner?

We worked without taking a break.

- What's wrong?
- I'm worried.

Especially after what professor
Robinson said.

- Elaborate, please...
- I mean that tonight...

...another innocent woman
could be killed.

Hello!

Commissioner Bonelli?

- It's me.
- Good morning, Commissioner.

I'm Richard Fair brain,
Isabel Fair brain's father.

I think you know what this is about.

- Alex Ritt's wife.
- Sure, Mr Fair brain.

I heard you're investigating
on the alleged Italian "Video Killer".

Look, give me your address
and telephone number.

There's no need, I'm about
to leave for Rome.

I don't want to be rude,

but you have no reason
to come here,

- you can't do anything to help us.
- You're wrong.

I know things that you don't know.

I need to see you soon.

If you know something important,

why don't you tell me about it now?

We already have the reports
of the American investigations,

we talked about it with
professor Robinson.

Impossible, we need to meet in person.

Trust me, it's vital.

I know and respect professor Robinson,

but he doesn't know what I know.

- I will leave today.
- Okay, as you wish.

Let me know the flight number
and I'll have you picked up.

But I won't have
much time for you.

Goodbye!

We just needed a father destroyed by pain!

Well, you're gonna deal with him, okay?

Unfortunately, I'm very busy.

Yes, come in!

Mr Marini is here, I let him in?

Yes, I was waiting for him.

Please, sit down, can I get you a coffee?

Yes, thank you.

Sorry if I woke you up at this hour,

but we need your help.

No problem.

I'm here to collaborate
and at your disposal.

But you know that as a producer
I have my responsibilities,

both with regard to the crew
and the capital invested.

We want to know if there have been
any variations in the locations.

Maybe there have been changes...

No, no.

It's an important information for us.

Read the script again,
think about it.

No, no change of plans.

And yet there's been a variation,

and you as a producer, should know that.

The first scene shot at Sant'Angelo castle

was to be done at the Colosseum!

In this case it's not a variation,

it was just a postponement
of the filming order.

Even today...

It was not planned to shoot
the scene at the Trevi fountain,

but at the Campidoglio.

I knew it!

What are you doing here?

Your door won't close.

It's not a good reason to come
here, like a thief or a killer.

I was waiting for you.

- I see.
- Why are you out this late?

- I'm a grown-up woman.
- You enjoy playing with fire, huh?

- I know what I'm doing.
- I hope so, Stefani a.

- Alex is a dangerous man.
- Thank you, I can take care of myself.

What did you do?

We played with fire.

Alex...

Alex...

You killed me...

And you must pay for this...

Alex...

Why did you kill me?

You are a murderer!

Why?

Murderer!

Alex!

Alex! Alex!

No!

Murderer!

- Hello?
- Hello?

I'd like to speak with
Wendy Williams, please.

It's me.

I was waiting for your call, Mr Ritt.

- Mr Fair brain?
- Commissioner Bonelli?

No, I'm his assistant, the Commissioner
is very busy at the moment.

- You can meet him tomorrow.
- Okay.

In the meantime, if you need anything,
I'm at your disposal.

Thank you, but don't worry.

I need to see someone,
before talking to him.

And I can handle myself just fine.

But since you're here,
you could drive me to my hotel.

- Of course.
- Thank you.

So I won't get lost.

All right, come on.

-Who is it?
- Police!

- Mr Ritt?
- Yes.

You should come with me.

- Just a moment.
- Okay.

Good morning, Ritt, please take a sit.

You may leave.

We called you in for an interview.

You know professor Robinson
of the F.B.I., right?

Oh, no, Robinson why are you here,
what do you want from me?

Are you enjoying stalking me?

Isn't the trouble you've
caused me so far enough?

No, no! Calm down, Ritt! Sit down!

You don't understand,
he's been stalking me for two years!

The professor is cooperating
with the investigation.

And he'll convince you I'm guilty!

He's been after me for two years,

treating me like a psychopath.

The fact that you've trouble
controlling your emotions

is more than obvious.

My problem is always seeing
your fucking face!

That's enough, or I'll have you
arrested for contempt.

Try to frame me again, and I swear
Ill rip your head off

and I'll shove it up to your ass!

At least they'll have a reason
to arrest me!

That's enough, Ritt!

You haven't changed at all.

It's time for you to pay!

- Pay for what, asshole!
- Stop it!

Knock it off, sit down!

Calm down!

So...

...Ritt...

...what did you do last night?

- Last night?
- Yes!

Why do you want to know?

Because the "Video Killer"
didn't sleep at all!

And you don't look rested either.

- Greta Weiskopf.
- What?

She was killed near the Campidoglio.

- Where were you?
- I was at home.

- Can anyone testify to that?
- Yes.

I was with a woman, but I'd rather
her not getting involved, you know?

I took her out for dinner, and...

The doorman saw me coming in.

And then I went out
with another woman.

- We went to a bar.
- Okay.

- The barman will remember us.
- We'll check it out.

In the meantime, you better
give me your passport.

Come on.

You can go now.

Try to gather your thoughts,
and tell me everything from the start.

No, Wendy, I don't feel like to,
I'm so sick about it.

Carnage committed by a hooded maniac,

ghosts from beyond the grave...

It seems like the horrid
tale of a drunkard.

- Hooded?
- Yes.

Yes, a hood, like an executioner's.

Why?

That reminds me of something, but...

...I can't confirm it at the moment.

We're all extremely lonely.

So, we create our ghosts,
our monsters.

And then we hate them and we'd
suppress them within us.

Of course, an intense reaction
can dominate

our dark side, but sometimes
it comes out.

No matter what.

We must learn to live with them.

We have to help them, and why not,
also get attached to them.

We must overcome fear.

Did you learn to live with your monsters?

Good morning, can I help you?

I'm Richard Fair brain,
Miss Stella is waiting for me.

- Welcome to Italy, Mr Fair brain.
- Stefani a.

- You may leave now, thank you, Lily.
- Yes, madame.

- So, how are you?
- Fine.

- You're so beautiful!
- Thank you!

You have no idea how happy
I am to see you again.

You shouldn't drink so much.

Why would you want to deprive me
of my life's last pleasure?

You're young and beautiful,
you have the whole future ahead,

my future was stolen from me.

I have nothing to live for.

You're the most brilliant
director of Broadway,

and recently you've been contacted
for a big show in London.

Theatre means nothing to me anymore.

You need to move on.

I know it's not easy for you after
the loss you've suffered,

but if you can't do it for yourself,
at least do it for me.

I want to act in one of your comedies.

One of the bright ones,
I don't want a tragic role.

We've had enough of tragedy.

You're a singer, and now
you want to do theatre?

You told me that I got what
it takes for it, do you remember?

And then I want to see New York again,
if this nightmare ends.

It's a never-ending nightmare, for me.

Life is not a comedy,

you don't unveil the truth
at the end.

You can't lower the curtain
whenever you want.

Death always catches us by surprise.

And it also happens that a father
has to bury his own daughter.

This nightmare will end, sooner or later.

And you're gonna move on with
your life, just like I do.

If that happens,

I promise you will be the star

of the most brilliant comedy
ever performed on Broadway

in ten years.

I'm sure Isabel would be very proud of you.

- Stefani a?
-Yes?

I want you to keep this.

I know that she really loved you.

I know that she really loved you.

Lily...

Burn it!

Alex!

I'm here at the library!

I think I found what I was looking for.

Hi Alex, I'm glad you came.

Do you remember you told me
about the black hood?

Yes.

It reminded me of something
I heard before.

And now I found the answer, look.

A painting? What about it?

I don't know, and I think
that no one knows.

I know this picture.

- I've already seen it.
- No, it's impossible.

This painting was stolen
during World War ll.

No one knows where it is.

Maybe it's in the living room
of a wealthy collector,

or maybe it's moldy,
forgotten in some cellar.

Why my story reminded you
this painting?

Its painter is Andrea Pisani,

he was born in Rome in 1865,
and died in 1892.

He hung himself in prison.

He had killed his wife.

She was 20, and she was his model.

He painted it after the murder.

After his arrest, he did not stop begging
for forgiveness from God and his wife.

The night before his suicide,
he wanted to talk to a priest,

and he told him that he
didn't kill his wife,

but he had been possessed
by the spirit of this old woman,

as he said, the incarnation of evil,

and that the spirit would
reincarnate and kill again.

Do you know how he killed his wife?

Do you mean, which weapon he used?

- Yes.
- A machete.

That's what he told the gendarmes.

But some people say that when they
arrested him, he was painting this.

And his hands were dripping
with blood and color.

The machete was next to him.

Everyone heard the atrocious screams,

and blood was flowing under the door.

Probably he cut her to pieces,
'cause no body was found.

Andrea Pisani seems to be buried
in the cemetery of Ardea, near Rome.

What are you doing here?

I---

I was interested in this artist.

Artist? Better saying, murderer.

Ripper, maniac!

His art was... to kill.

You must have heard all
that romantic nonsense,

like the evil spirit he painted
that would infect his mind

and forces him to slaughter his wife!

And then the torment, the guilt

he won't get rid of until

he kills himself in prison.

No, Andrea Pisani had no wife.

He didn't love any woman.

He was good-looking and talkative,

with these skills he was able
to lure young women into his trap,

then he chained them up and tortured them.

And he smeared on those canvases,
innocent blood.

Killing exalted him, enthused him,

and he reduced his victims to shreds
of flesh, bones, and guts!

Why visit the tomb of such a monster?

What macabre instinct brought you here?

Perhaps a dark force hidden in your heart

subconsciously led you here.

Or maybe it's your evil spirit

that pushed you to his grave,

maybe you both feel the desire
to kill, kill, and kill!

And now Stella's new hit, "Alibi",
dedicated to the guilty ones!

I'm not at home, you have 30
seconds to leave a message, thank you.

Hello, Stefani a, it's Alex.

Yesterday night was amazing...

I wanted to hear your voice.

All right, as you wish.

Maybe I'll call you later.

Bye.

Mr Fair brain...

- Commissioner Bonelli.
- Sorry for making you wait.

Don't worry, I'm used to it.

I've always been interested in
the "Video Killer" investigation,

and even Professor Robinson
didn't like me around.

Then I hope you don't want
to bother him again, since he's in Italy.

No, don't worry.

I've already told him what I had to say.

You don't seem to have been
of much help, though, do you?

You said you know something...

In the newspapers you read news about
the victims and their aggressors,

but no one would write an article
about the families of the victims.

When a woman is killed, you have
to consider her relationships,

she quite always has a family,
maybe a husband.

Brothers, sisters, sons.

Maybe a lover.

You must think I talk like that
because I'm a theatre director,

and my specialty is studying
people's relationships.

I didn't know you were a theatre director.

Indeed, I am, and pretty famous, I'd say.

But I decided to quit.

See, I am, no, I was,
mainly, a father.

I'm sorry for what happened
to your daughter.

Save the formalities,
I know you don't care.

As a policeman, for you
it's just a corpse.

Trust me, I'm really sorry
for all the innocent victims.

But in this case, we have no bodies.

Sometimes, not everything
you see is necessarily real.

And not all that is real,
it's not necessarily seen.

You said you know something
that no one knows.

I know everything.

So, tell me: who's the "Video Killer"?

Alex Ritt, of course!

That's what Robinson says.

I'd dismiss it because Ritt
witnessed the murders.

I'm sure that he is the "Video Killer".

It's him who murdered
my daughter Isabel.

It's him who murdered his wife.

- That's it?
- Yes, it's all you need to know.

So, he started to kill in America,

and now he's killing here in Italy.

I didn't say that.

What the hell did you say, then?

Ritt killed my daughter
and the other American victims.

I never said that he's
the Italian "Video Killer".

Who do you think it is?

I think I'm going to visit
the Colosseum.

It's something I wanted to do
since I was a kid.

You just wasted my time
on things I already knew.

Is that what you think?

Listen to me, Mr Fair brain...

...stay out of this investigation,
you're gonna waste our time.

And stay away from Ritt, even if
you're sure he's the "Video Killer"!

Goodbye, Commissioner.

Stefani a!

Stefani a!

But that's the lunatic of the graveyard.

Hi, I'm not at home, you have
30 sec to leave a message, thank you.

Stefani a, are you there?

I haven't solved it yet,
I hope I can by tomorrow.

Wendy!

Wendy, Stefani a, the Countess,
what the hell they want from me?

There he is...

...again.

I'd like to take a look around,
I know they did an excellent job.

Unfortunately, I'm not allowed
to admire it.

But Amilcare, who also uses
his eyes for me,

told me that it was extraordinary.

- Right, Amilcare?
- Yes, madam.

But now let's go down to the cellar,
SO you can judge for yourself.

- Alex, is it you?
- Yes, madam, it's him.

Tell me why you came
into my house like this.

- Like a thief!
- Listen...

I know that Wendy is here,
I need to talk to her.

Oh, Alex, I feel so sorry for you.

You're so fragile, after all.

Please, tell me where Wendy is,
it's important, I need to talk to her.

Wendy...

But, it's impossible...

Wendy is dead now.

What? What did you say?

Help!

Wendy! Wendy!

Wendy!

Alex! Help!

Alex!

Wendy, what the hell...

No!

No!

This just came for you, sir.

Stop, freeze the frame.

It could be the cellar of
Mirafiori palace, don't you think?

These could be the headlights
of a car in front of the window.

The windows of the cellar
are 70 cm high, right?

Stop now!

Look, that's the shadow of the killer!

He's screwed, he shot his shadow!

Nice one! What do you think, Valenti?

The image is quite clear.

- It could be Ritt.
- But those are not his hair.

Yeah, you don't have to be
a famous psychiatric

to know that a psychopath disguises
himself to avoid detection.

We cannot say that he
was wearing a wig.

Of course, anything is possible.

We're just making assumptions,
we don't have any proof.

Okay, then, let's put the screws to him.

I want to question him again,
12 hours in a row, if I have to!

All right...

- Where are you going, Commissioner?
- I'm going to work.

- Good morning, can I help you?
- Good morning.

I want to talk to the Countess.

She's at home?

No, after the unfortunate episode of that
lunatic who managed to terrorize her,

she decided to go to the countryside.

- She's the guest of Baroness...
- It's all right.

Can I take a look around? Thank you.

Commissioner!

You scared me!

But you...

What are you doing here?

I came to ask about the Countess.

And you, what are you doing here?

I'm doing my job.

- Of course, you're right.
- Look...

A video camera...

- You think that is...
- We'll give it to the forensics...

You see, I'm not familiar
with these things, but

you, who are in the business, tell me,

could it be the camera

that filmed the murders?

No, no!

Don't touch it, put the gloves on!

Otherwise, you could leave some prints.

Excuse me, but the long hair
don't bother you?

- Commissioner!
- Hands up and freeze!

- What the...
- Stop or I kill you!

- What the...
- Stop or I kill you!

Don't move or I shoot you!

Idiot! Who ordered you to shoot?

The bullet didn't damage
any vital organs.

But he lost a lot of blood.

At the moment his condition is serious,

but I think he could do it.

He's young and strong.

Did you operate on Mr Antonucci?

Yes, it's me.

I was just talking with your colleague.

He's not my colleague, anyway,
when is it possible to question him?

He's not in condition to talk.

- Okay, thank you.
- You're welcome.

Well, Ritt's been released.

The Countess preferred
not to press charges.

Looks like the case
is definitely closed now.

It was the camera that found him guilty.

There were prints everywhere.

- You made him put the gloves on, right?
- Yes, exactly.

It's clear that he had already used it.

Yes, it all seems to match,

it's perfect, and we also have the motive.

It seems that Antonucci hated women,
without any distinction.

He's a psychopath.

Anyway, professor Robinson is the expert.

Eh, indeed...

Now we know that he killed,

and then he managed to throw
suspicion back at Alex Ritt.

And it's very likely that Stefani a Stella

would be the next victim.

Hello?

- Hello, Commissioner.
- Ah, professor Robinson.

I called you to say goodbye.

Now that you've solved
your killer's case,

I'll go back to the States,
and deal with my "Video Killer".

When do you leave?

I'm already at the airport.

It's imperative that I return

before Halloween.

Looks like an old case reopened.

My God...

She could have been my daughter.

And here I thought I'd seen
everything in my life.

Excuse me, where can I find the
costume designer?

- In that room over there.
- Thank you.

Excuse me, sorry to interrupt you,
but I think you could help me.

Did you know this woman, Gina Lorenzi?

Of course, I knew her.

- Such a tragedy, poor thing.
- Eh, I know.

Who are you?

I'm Commissioner Bonelli.

Again? But the police have already
been here, after the murder.

So, you couldn't find the culprit.

Not yet.

Look, I've been working as costume
designer for many years,

I've worked with Gina in
many movies and commercials.

I've got some pictures, I'll show you.

It's a commercial.

That's a commercial Gina shot.

She was pretty, don't you think?

It's Commissioner Bonelli.

- I want to talk to Calzetta.
- It's me, Commissioner.

- Ritt is still there?
- No, he already left.

Listen, you have to track him down.

It's life or death, you need
to get him back to the station now!

Listen, the video of the murder
is also missing.

Poor Daniel, who would have thought
it would go this way.

He looks out of danger,
he'll make it, you'll see.

- And the girls he killed?
-I..

What about them?

I didn't know he loved me that much.

He was jealous, that's why
he ended up Killing those girls.

So he actually hated you,
and he tried to frame you.

I thought he was your friend,
he admired you so much!

Stefani a, can you tell me
who is this man, please?

Who, him? It's the painter Andrea Pisani.

The Killer who hung himself in prison?

Yes, it's him, you didn't tell me
you were an expert in Italian Art.

Anyway, Luca, I'm so sorry
for your brother.

Especially for those poor girls.

I better get back to work,
I have to finish the editing of the MV.

So I can get the hell out of this country!

And you'll never see me again!

I can't track Ritt down,
he already left the hotel.

His phone is off and
no one knows where he is!

Then, keep searching!

I have to solve this case!

No one is telling the truth,
there must be an explanation!

This nightmare must end!

Mr Fair brain is here, I told him
you wouldn't see him, but...

...he insisted.

- Fair brain, the father, and Stefani a!
- Yes!

Ah, what a fool I am!

He told me: family, sisters, friends!

But I couldn't understand.

He told me: not everything
you see is real.

And vice versa, not everything
that is real is seen!

That's it!

Commissioner!

- Mr Fair brain!
- Finally you're here, Commissioner.

You did know that Antonucci
wasn't the "Video Killer".

You know what I think.

We shot him, and we've almost
killed an innocent man!

You know that?
You knew everything from the start!

The great theatre director!
Why did you lie?

I didn't lie, I told you the truth!

Or maybe, not all the truth.

So, Alex Ritt is innocent!

Innocent?

I was sure you'd think
about what I said,

you're a smart man,
and you're good at your job.

I won't be here if I'd think otherwise.

For what?

To witness the last act before
the curtain falls on this drama.

What do you mean?
Enough with the riddles!

I swear you won't get away with this,
tell me where Ritt is!

Ritt?

He's where movies are made!

Stefani a!

Alex...

Alex...

Stefani a!

Alex...

Alex...

Alex...

Alex...

Alex...

Alex...

What the hell is going on, Stefani a?

You're about to die!

What? Do you want to kill me?

Yes, but it won't be me,
but your own victims!

My victims?

Yes!

You're crazy! What do you know?

Crazy? You don't know that
you're just my puppet.

I have to admit that
I enjoyed the game.

Yes, I scared you, I turned you on...

I tormented you, I forced all
the emotions I wanted, on you,

and you fell for it!

And as a criminal, Alex, you're a fiasco!

You killed them!

You know, your mind
is playing tricks on you.

You said I killed them... maybe...

But maybe it's you.

Don't you remember, Alex?
Think about it.

Don't you remember Rebecca
before killing her with the machete?

Or when you reached Tamara...

...you threw her on the ground,
and then you killed her.

You were enjoying it, weren't you, Alex?

Even when you beheaded
your wife with a machete!

Or when you killed Gina!
Do you remember Gina?

- No!
- Don't you, Alex?

You sick bastard, you maniac!

It's not true!

I'm not a killer!

No? Try telling them you're not!

Though I don't think they'll
be so easily persuaded.

Dead...

Dead...

Dead...

Dead...

Dead...

Dead! Dead! Dead!

Alex...

Dead! Dead! Dead!

Leave me alone!

Dead! Dead! Dead!

Leave me alone!

Dead! Dead!

Inge was the best friend I ever had.

You killed Jessica, she was my love!

Isabel was my cousin.

The gipsy was my mother!

Gina was my sister.

Sweet sweet, fresh fresh,
is the summer's ice cream!

Amazing peach blossom!

Yes, it's true, I killed them!

Didn't you want a confession?

Is that what you wanted me to confess?
I killed them!

Why?

She wanted to leave me!

She wanted to leave,
she had no right to leave me!

Isabel!

She shouldn't have left me,
I couldn't let her!

I managed to stop her!

- Why the others, why?
- I had to!

Why?

I had to!

I had to figure out a way
not to go to jail!

And anyway... they were sluts...

All of them!
They're nothing but sluts!

I warned her not to leave me!

She was a whore, like all the others!

That's why I had to do it,
you're all sluts!

No, don't, Stefani a!

You got what you wanted,
he confessed, and he'll be punished.

No, Stefani a, don't kill him.

No, Stefani a, don't!

I understand, now.

I finally understand, it was all set up.

You tried to break him psychologically.

Of course, it was all an act
to frame him!

There was no murder here,
it was a macabre drama!

You all agreed, you were all in this, right?

Of course, you were good to arrange
this frightening charade.

Okay...

You got what you wanted,
there's no need to kill him.

Stefani a, don't!
You're not like him!

You're not murderers!

Put down the gun, Stefani a.

Come on!

Jesus, this is crazy!

So, the crimes were fake,
it was all a setup.

But how did you find out?

I saw a picture of Gina Lorenzi.

The video star.

She was with her sister, Stefani a.

We'd better alert Dr Lucidi
and Commissioner Valenti.

But the responsible for this charade
will have to deal with the law, right?

I don't know if they thought about that.

It doesn't matter.

They acted out of love for their
loved ones, for revenge.

Stefani a...

Revenge for her sister's murder.

Tamara...

Revenge for her mother's death.

Wendy...

Revenge for her lover.

And then Mr Fair brain...

...who directed this huge video-charade.

No, dad, don't punish me... dad!

Poor Alex, you haven't learned
to live with your monsters.

No, dad, don't punish me, no!

No, dad, no! Don't punish me!

Dad!

Dad!

Don't punish me, dad!
