New York Ripper

Directed by the godfather of gore, Lucio Fulci, NEW YORK RIPPER is one of the most notorious and deeply unsettling horror films in the history of cinema. When a dog emerges from wasteland with a severed hand in its mouth, the scene is set for a murder mystery that is absurd as it is shocking. The ripper in question preys upon promiscuous females, stalking them before ending their lives in a variety of sadistic ways. The police are stumped, but with the killer calling to taunt them after each murder, the net is closing in. Banned in many countries and refused a certificate by the censors for years - the film was considered so shocking by previous BBFC director James Ferman, that he ordered the print be sent out of the country, under police escort.
