Synopsis

Thriller and comedy, two of the genres that over the years have brought most prestige to Italian cinema, are here wonderfully combined by the expert hand of Bruno Corbucci: parapsychology mixed with salacious jokes, a serial killer surrounded by parody, the beautiful Edwige Fenech enveloped by the chills of horror. The film is dominated by Pippo Franco, who once again shows how his stereotypical likable loser is but the most obvious face of an actor capable of unexpected subtleties. Well worth rediscovering.

An unlucky driver conquers a beautiful woman thanks to his alleged paranormal power. However, the premonitions, suggested to him by a self-styled guardian angel, often relate to murders that punctually come true. It is enough to arouse the suspicions of a police detective.
