Malena, a woman who divides her life between two jobs: by night she's a dancer in a cabaret and by day she answers a "Hot Line," an erotic telephone line. However, her routine turns into a nightmare when a serial killer begins calling her, recounting his crimes in chilling detail and announcing that she will be his next victim. This is a clear homage to the Italian Giallo.HoH
