"The impulse grew irresistible.
There was just an answer to the fury which tormented him... " Dario Agento, Tenebre.
Have you ever done harm?
Have you ever tried to hurt somebody?
You must stop pestering me.
It's all over between us!
I... don't love you anymore!
Now it's too late.
You'll just have to live with it.
I meet another boy and I am in love with him.
I'm sorry...
BAD STATE OF MENTAL CONFUSION, NEURO/COGNITIVE DEFICIENCY, PARANOID SCHIZOPHRENIA.
I'm aware it could seem a drastic remedy to you, but, believe me,
I'm acting like this just for your own good.
And, however, we have already talked about this possibility, hadn't we?
Isn't that so?
We must reinforce treatment.
Don't worry, everything will be okay.
Obviously, I'll keep you under control, checking your tests.
Don't worry, everything will be okay.
Spending some time in clinic, will be good for you,
I'm sure.
I have done it again.
I was good throughout all these years, but you cheated on me and I... I trusted you.
Now we are here, you and I.
There is a big mess inside me, too big!
It was not as the first time, no...
and what is more frightening is to feel sensations I have never perceived before.
I needed your help, but you forsook me. You too!
What did you say?
Our analytical relationship reached a deadlock, by now?
You were right!
My true personal character has popped up this way all of a sudden,
what I have always kept hidden nowis free and it has no secrets for me anymore
How would you call what has happened to me?
A transfer?
I'd rather call it a metamorphosis, the last one in my life
Like a chrysalis!
Claudia!
She was the first one!
When I was a child, I came here very often... and I am still wondering why!
Death obsesses me. It obsesses me so much that I want to copy it.
I am not the monster and not even I want to justify myself for what I have done.
You have been a naughty boy, are you aware?
And nowl should punish you.
But I have decided not to do it.
And now, let's play a game, instead!
You mustn't be afraid of me... you mustn't!
No, no, not!
Come... come here!
- No, no! - Yes, come here!
No!
In the name of the Father, of the Son, of the Holy Spirit...
Howlong haven't you asked God's forgiveness for your sins?
I never asked Him for.
- Is it the first time you go to confession? - Yes, it is!
Well done! This is a good sign, indeed!
It means it is your wish to approach Our Lord.
God could never forgive me what I have done, and I am not here to ask Him to forgive me.
Well, why are you here, then?
I am here to confess, and you will have to listen to me.
All right, I am listening to you!
Do you really have all this faith, priest?
Do you really think the good Lord one day will come and save you?
In His unbounded mercy,
God saves all them who believe in Him and He forgives their sins
if they have shown a truthful regret.
And meanwhile, what does He do?
He sits on His throne, watching indifferent what He created?
He let evil spread around mankind, and He blackmails men by the faith.
We cannot judge the Almighty's plans.
The Crucified Jesus, who died for us,
is the proof of that mistery we call faith.
Stop lying, you hypocrite bastard.
If you have come here just to insult, you'd better get out of this holy place!
The unsuspected Father Alfred, that's the way you take care of the damned?
But... who are you? Do we know each other?
Many years have passed, but you are still the filthy pig you were...
may be... nowyou begin to remember... Do you still play your little games with the altar kids?
That's enough! I don't knowyou...
get out, you devil!
Devil? While blaming devil, you are wearing his tail!
Just a little longer, and the Wicked one will not be anymore;
And when the wicked men will be wiped out,
you will see Him.
I'm father Alfred.
Yes, he has come back.
I have seen him.
Now!
God is dead.
Have fun!
- Hello, Toto! - Hello, Felix!
Have you heard what happened? That's crazy!
Yes, yes... I've heard.
I was sure he would have done it again, sooner or later.
Once you start killing, you can't stop!
Yet, in my opinion, he has got his reasons to kill.
His reasons?
After all, he was born badly and we knowperfectly how well...
He grew up without his parents, he has got an horrible childhood!
What are you saying, Toto? So orphan children should be all murderers, according to you?
Certainly not... I'm just saying he is an exception.
Do you justify him?
Do you mean if I justify him? Yes, I do.
But he is an assassin. How do you justify an assassin?
I'm just saying he doesn't kill at random. He has always his reason.
But, what do you say, Toto? He's mad!
And isn't madness a good reason?
Not exactly.
- Look there! - Where?
I didn't like him... He talked too much!
You cannot imagine what face she made when they text her in decadency...
she got into a panic!
And then, oddly enough, they changed the question, asking her a subject-matter as she wanted.
Well, we can say she was very clever to use her talents...
Yes, sure. Tits and ass!
Well, what now? Let's go?
Yes, let's go.
Wait, folks! I must top up.
May I top up?
Sure, tell me your number.
333-70-30-28.
A ten Euro top up.
Here, take it.
Thank you.
- Bye! - Bye, thanks.
- Come on... - Sure you are right...
- Really? - Yes, Marco has got his circle.
Sorry I'm so late, boys!
Oh, here you are!
Well, Lisa, what will you do after summertime?
I haven't decided yet, but I think I will enroll in Arts Faculty.
I was sure!
I will go to Dublin, instead.
You don't say so! Will you enroll Trinity?
Yes, I hope so...
my father would like me to continue our family tradition.
You are very lucky, do you know? Trinity College is one of the best schools and
it can offer you many scopes.
Okay, shall we keep on talking about future or shall we choose what to do tonight?
Bowling?
Great!
We haven't gone for months, you can eat excellent hamburger,
and I am a little hungry.
There is no love. There is no magic.
Just sex... sex... sex... sex.
Well? Do you like smuts, don't you?
Yes, I do.
I am smart, do you know?
- And I have no bounds. - All right, I want to shoot you.
What? Would you like to shoot me?
Yes.
Do you want to make a porno clip?
Yes.
As a souvenir?
Come on, we can talk about it when you're here... a kiss!
I'm coming!
What's that? Did you want to play a trick on me, little devil?
Do you knowyou have already aroused me? Come here, you little pig!
What the fuck is it... blood?
Pig! Pig's blood is nice. Do you feel death?
By your pain, you will wash all your sins.
The victims, who was a well-known professional, have been killed under mysterious circumstances in a brothel.
Investigations go on in the utmost secrecy, but at the moment is taking shape more and more
obviously the action of a serial killer.
Wow! I've hit it at first shot... Poldo, Poldo! Come here... hunt, hunt!
It seems to have fallen down here. Seek for it, Poldo,
or I'll going to eat you.
It's here, Poldo, come... I've found it!
Well... I have it! Are you glad?
We can go back home, at last!
But... what's happened here? Has anybody killed a pig?
Do you like hunting?
I like hunting too!
What the fuck do you want? Who are you? Who are you?
Four murders! Four people killed and no clue.
Are we facing another serial killer?
Don't miss TV special Mystery Night, 23.30 on this channel.
Mystery Night. Channel 17. 23:30
My friends, this one must be our lucky chance.
Let's try not to be fucked by those dickhead of competition, as usual, all right?
Who were the ones have been killed. What they did, which people they saw, where they lived...
There is everything here! A prostitute, a professional, a hunter, a priest...
Great! Well, I want to know all that there is to know about the priest.
And, considering his job,
it would not be so hard.
We have also photos of casualties...
in a word, as usual, a good half of the job is made by other people...
Just joking.
The prostitute had no previous convictions,
- but drug addict. - That's exactly as I was telling you.
Do you think anyone cares about a prostitute...
a dead prostitute, or a prostitute alive, she's still a whore!
Her client, instead...
may be they looked for him and killed her as she was a witness.
What about the others?
The others...
ask their relatives, next-door neighbours.
Shoot closely friends tearful eyes... in short, that load of craps which always works.
But the priest, the priest, dig for information, mind you!
Look into his personal affairs.
How should we start?
We start
with my introduction. Commercial break,
then we begin with the whore, we air some film footage with girls walking the streets,
and then we move on the hunter. Commercial.
We start again with the professional, the one fucking for his last time, right?
In the end, we close with prelate! May be we manage to construct
the possibility of a crime of passion
and we get stuck before TVthe most morbid ones till the end of the episode.
And our daily program?
Something will strike me.
Well, go now!
Goodnight, my friends!
Goodnight to all them who listen to us every week with great attention.
Goodnight for what, we hope, will be really a good night.
Because, apparently someone wants to provide this broadcast dealing with crime news,
too much footage.
You have already figured out what I'm talking you about...
They are nightmare nights the ones away
rom the discovery of the first corpse in the outskirts of our town.
Three more victims, since then.
Four corpses.
Four people which were found barbarously murdered.
Who is the killer?
That's what we all are wondering.
Who can commit so atrocious crimes?
Police investigation traces back to the brutal murder
of a mad serial killer.
Is it a man, or a woman?
Which one could be his or her face?
Crimes are not related.
Anyone could be.
Your next-door neighbour could be.
He could have committed his fifth crime a few minutes before meeting you on the landing.
It could be the same person who in a minute or two will ring
for you asking an egg, a lemon, a glass of milk,
or a knife...
This man doesn't kill, he slaughters!
He seems to take pleasure in looking at his victims while they are dying in terrible pains and fear.
In a word, where image controls people,
this fellow seems to be likely to wear a sensational one, too sensational.
Even to whom has the tough job of going, having a look,
verifying and telling things by profession.
But this is Mystery Night! Mystery Night is a true broadcast,
which tells real life as it is...
in its crudity sometimes, but never exploiting people's sufferings.
He who commits such atrocious crimes must be a lucid psychopathic,
arranging everything to the last detail,
never omitting, wiping off all prints, except
from his signature, the ferocity of his gesture.
He seems to challenge, telling us: I am here, haven't you recognized me yet?
Well... we can do something.
Mystery Night tonight really turns to report TV?
How?
Taking up the challenge!
Mr X or whatever you want to be called!
If you really want to become famous, call up the number you will see superimposed before long.
We are here listening to you.
Anyway, it doesn't matter whether you will do it or not!
Because from this moment, Mystery Night sides with police to help
unmasking you,
and I myself personally commit before the audience, to help investigations by our task.
In a few moments we will begin an incredible trip,
inside a mind which, to say the least, we can say it a depraved one.
In a few seconds. Now, commercial.
...lucid psychopathic...
In my opinion, today you have gone too far.
Aren't you afraid?
Afraid? If only he would turn up!
Just imagine what an interview: Face to face with monster.
Suit yourself... Look out!
That's our job!
Your job it isn't risking. It is to inform.
First, to amaze, then to inform. A flash is not enough.
We cannot air what so many program have already shown.
We must do more,
much more,
otherwise we'll be always that shitty local TV we are.
Listen to me, it is like that.
Well, don't you say goodnight to me tonight?
Goodnight...
and if you meet monster, take a photo of him!
So far we have just warmed up, the best has to come.
You will see, you'll enjoy it. You are an artist,
I have something special for you... A truly impressing finale.
How did you say?
A crazy trip inside a wicked mind.
Wicked mind...
Lucid psychopathic...
Mister X.
Toto, why all that wickedness?
Why? Why? Why? Why?
Because he's unhappy, my dear Felix!
He seems to be more angry than unhappy...
He shouldn't have lived... and he doesn't live, quite!
What do you mean?
Something shuttered inside him, many years ago!
What?
They tore up his heart...
He has no heart, and when you live unhappy too many years, your heart is doomed to die
and if heart dies... you don't live anymore!
- What a sad thing! - What a sad thing!
Pink, the star cried in the heart of your ear
White, the infinite came down from your nape to your back,
Reddish, the sea covered with beads your vermilion bossom,
Black, the man bled by your supreme hip.
Come on, hand it to me... it's my turn...
Go easy on it, it's heavy stuff!
Give me!
But where are we going?
You'll see, it's a dreadful spot!
Here we are! Isn't it terrific?
Where have you taken me?
Didn't you mean anything exciting?
Here it is!
A deserted house?
Sure.
You are crazy! I don't get in there!
It's just a deserted house.
And, in your opinion, I am a girl to take in deserted houses?
Certainly not, this is not relevant!
It's just to make more stirring the matter!
Come on, sweetie, we are here, by now.
Think of all sensations it can give you.
Sure: Scare and muck! There must be revolting insects in there!
In here, the only disgusting animal to be afraid of, it's me!
Go on! Take me home.
Come on! Let's get in just a moment,
and if you don't like it, we leave at one.
Do you promise?
I do promise.
Well, if you play a dirty trick on me, you ended with me...
all right?
Don't worry...
- What a nice and fearful girl! - Stop it!
Nasty monster is here...
Come on, give me a kiss!
Let me go... let me go!
You are right.
In there, it's much better.
Take, this is for you.
Thanks a lot.
Come after me! I showyou the way.
Wait for me! Don't run! Come on, let's pass through here, it's easier.
Wait for me, damn!
Come on!
Have your heard me?
Come on, hurry up!
What a shit! You'll pay for this...
where are you? Wait!
Forsaken.
Darkness.
I didn't need these unexpected things! Nowl'll have to get rid of two more corpse.
I think I can't go on... I am tired!
It's useless going on killing.
I have no more impulse,
I even don't know why I do kill!
I need to get out...
I must get out...
Out! Out!
Out!
Stop, stop! Stop playing...
What's going on? What's the matter with the girl?
Time passes, dear Felix! Time flies for everyone!
For him too?
His time has already elapsed, but he doesn't knowit yet.
Now what will it happen?
You already knowit.
- What a sad thing... - What a sad thing...
Hello?
Do you like Rimbaud? I like him as well... His lines speak to free souls, like we are...
Pardon?
You don't have to be afraid.
You and I are alike. We share a lot of things, do you know?
A secret world of love which is going to burst out...
If you are joking, this joke is not fun!
I am not joking and I'll showyou...
see you later, Lisa...
Hey! What a nice surprise!
Don't you have anything better to do, you and David?
David and me?
Sure, I knowyou are plotting!
Listen... I am here at home, alone!
Are you sure?
Of course, David has left however. What happened?
Nothing, I got an odd call.
What kind of call?
Someone who likes joking. And you, what are you up to?
Nothing important.
Would you like to come to see me?
Do you mean just now?
Yes, if you want, we can see a DVD.
Okay, I'd love to.
All right, I wait for you, then. Bye.
Ok, bye!
Yeah!
You were!
What do you want? Leave me alone! Would you mind cutting off that camera?
Where am I?
At my place! Be quiet...
Don't cry... I don't want to hurt you.
Let me go, please!
I can't. I need you
Who are you? I didn't do anything against you...
I will not tell anybody, I swear!
I thought you were different... Lisa! You are like all other women.
You too refused me, you didn't give me time to talk to you.
I'm sorry... it was not my intention. You scared me!
Do you want to save yourself?
Then, let's play a game.
You don't have to be afraid of me.
You don't!
No, no.
No, no, no.
I put a knife before your feet. I am here, standing still...
I will not move.
Take the knife and kill me.
If you'll manage, you shall be free!
No, no.
Please!
No, no.
Monster dies and everyone can go back home safe and sound...
But monsters shall always exist!
There he is! It's Him!
- Look out, he can carry a gun! - Stay where you are, don't move!
What do you hold? What do you hold?
Did you hear? Don't turn... you mustn't turn!
Keep calm, boys! Keep calm!
No, no! Who the fuck has shot?
- Damn! He didn't carry a gun! It's just a camera... - Shit! Shit!
Take me that camera right now! Quick!
I thought he had a gun.
