"Frenzy" is actually a very good film about serial killers; it's exciting, suspenseful, unpredictable and most of all, intelligent. A sandy-haired serial killer appears friendly on the outside, but has an unexpected surprise to unsuspecting women; a necktie placed tightly around their neck. And somebody else gets blamed for all these murders. Alfred Hitchcock directs this film with his usual sense of style except this is his one and only erotic thriller full of graphic violence, sex, and all that good stuff.
