After the body of murdered woman is found, nude and handcuffed, floating down the Hudson River in New York, a string of murders occur by an unseen serial killer who kills men by handcuffing them before killing them. Mac, a TV talk-show host, and Larry, a police detective, team up to try to find the killer and seek help from Virna, a clairvoyant young artist, who draws visions of the murders before they happen. As Mac and Larry try to establish a connection between the victims and the first female victim, who may have been sexually involved all of the male victims, Virna's further visions begin to point to her as the next victim as she unknowingly closes in on the killer's identity.

I haven't checked the dates, but I think this might be a bit of a rip-off of The Eyes of Laura Mars. It isn't terrible or anything, but I would rather watch a real giallo. This was a bit too slow and could have used more tension. I did like the cast, and the little bit of humor was nice. I liked the leads and thought they had a good amount of characterization. The mystery is pretty bland. I think that most people will guess who the killer is early on. I even had a guest guess after watching a couple minutes after I let it play while I was in the other room. It needs a bit more oomph.
