The Sniper

A taut psychological police drama has Franz playing a loner who knows that his mental condition makes him a dangerous man. His hostile feelings toward women drives him to kill brunettes under 30, but Franz tries to overcome his compulsions by entering a psychiatric hospital. Released prematurely, he kills six other victims before he is finally captured by Menjou.
