Summary
A deeply disturbed loner haunted by childhood trauma stalks the streets of New York City, murdering women and scalping his victims to nail their hair onto mannequins he keeps in his squalid apartment. As his grip on reality unravels, he strikes up an unlikely relationship with a fashion photographer, even as his violent compulsions spiral further out of control.
