Plot
An English-language throwback to the type of distinctly Italian thriller that earned him the international reputation as "The Italian Hitchcock," Dario Argento's Giallo once again teams the director with producer and younger sibling Claudio Argento to tell the tale of a serial slasher with a penchant for cutting beautiful women. After discovering that her sister has been abducted by a notorious serial killer who operates under the name "Yellow," an American flight attendant enlists the aid of an Italian investigator in seeking out her missing sibling. Asia Argento, Adrien Brody, Emmanuelle Seigner, and Elsa Pataky star in this thriller, penned by screenwriters Jim Agnew and Sean Keller. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide
The film follows an American flight attendant Linda (Emmanuelle Seigner) and Italian detective, Enzo Avolfi (Adrien Brody), who team up in a race against time to find her sister. The sister has been abducted by a maniacal serial killer (Byron Deidra) known only as "Yellow," who has been disfiguring and is murdering beautiful women.
