Šepkajúci fantóm

A dangerous maniac is on the loose in the city, targeting women... The last episode of the free Slovak crime series depicts the fight between law enforcement officers and a maniac who threatens women. An unknown young man cuts several girls with a razor on the street. The victims only remember that the perpetrator was wearing a hat with a pompom, like many men wear. There are also many suspects. The investigator of the case, Captain Hroncová, is in a difficult situation, especially after another crime occurs. This is the murder of her classmate, whom the perpetrator even warned about his intention by phone. The captain, risking her life to uncover the murderer and, with the help of her colleagues, eliminate him...

Directed by Andrej Lettrich, Šepkajúci fantóm leans on a strong ensemble — Sylvia Turbová, Ivan Rajniak, František Desset — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about crime titles of 1976.
