Summary

During the sweltering summer of 1977 in the Bronx, the Son of Sam serial killer terrorizes New York City, fraying nerves across a tight-knit Italian-American neighborhood. As paranoia mounts, a troubled hairdresser, his restless wife, and a punk-rock returnee find their relationships and community torn apart by suspicion, infidelity, and vigilante fear.

Released in 1999, Summer of Sam is a crime, drama and romance film.
