My Dear Killer (1972)
It’s somewhat rare for a police officer to be the main character in a giallo—usually, detectives shuffle around the edges of the story, clumsily trying to puzzle together who sliced the nude model’s throat open with her make-up mirror, or who strangled the playboy with piano wire. That’s not the case for My Dear Killer; it stars spaghetti western veteran George Hilton as a cop tasked with a solving a vexing series of murders that seem to link back to an equally vexing cold case, involving the kidnapping of a wealthy man’s daughter that ended with the death of both father and child. Watch on Shudder.
