The Bloodstained Shadow. 1978.
The body of a schoolgirl is found murdered and the killer is never caught. Years later a young man Stefano visits the area to see his brother, the local priest who fills him in on the locals, Stefano keeps seeing visions of a young boy and tries to uncover why he is seeing the boy.
Watch Me When I Kill was Antonio Bido's other 70s Giallo, it may not be everyone's favourite but I enjoyed it and this one was a lot better. It has the POV shots of the killer, main actor meets a woman and tries to romance her and eventually does, but there seems to be a odd ball of residents on the island that seem haunted by the past tragedy and fears there is a copycat or the killer has returned. There is a slow build up to the story but does play out well towards the end.
