When young women start turning up dead, a couple of cops begin to hunt for the sexual predator who is killing them.
It's an exploitation film, intended to show prostitutes and maniacs, with a thin veneer of respectability added by a couple of brief talks on how psychiatric care should be better. The acting was downright poor, with the usual dull-voiced lecture by the psychiatrist, and poor line readings by everyone but the strip-club owner. That was played by William Mishkin, who spent the next quarter century producing and distributing such fare as THE RATS ARE COMING! THE WEREWOLVES ARE HERE! and GUTTER TRASH. Surprisingly to me, I found Pat Rich's cinematography to be pretty good, although some of his work seems like an attempt to liven up a poor piece of exploitation.
THis might have been racy in 1953, but it's nothing these days.
