Back of Box:
 
Enter the world of madness in this intense psycho thriller where an incurable disease is the catalyst for a murderous rampage.
 
Michael York stars as a brilliant pianist stricken by a rare disease causing him to age with alarming speed.  Angry at the world for his misfortune, he sets out to kill those who remind him of his youth.
 
In the meantime, he plays a nightmarish game with the police, calling, taunting, challenging and threatening, perhaps out of a desperate wish to be caught.  His disease is his disguise.  This baffles the police as the description of the murderer is never the same.
 
To make matters worse, he discovers that his mistress is pregnant and intends to keep the child.  His twisted mind pushes him to try to kill the mother to prevent transmission of this dreadful disease to his unborn child.
 
Will the police succeed in stopping yet another brutal murder?
 
The rage of a man forced to die has no limits!
