A darkly stylized 1970s exploitation thriller that uses disco culture as a backdrop for a serial killer's descent, blending period nostalgia with graphic horror and transgressive content.

The mid-70's: A timid young New Yorker leads an uneventful life until he is fatefully exposed to the pulsating rhythms of a brand-new genre of music....disco. Unable to control his murderous impulses that stem from a traumatic childhood experience, Duane Lewis transforms into a dangerous serial killer exiled to Montreal.
