Asia Argento was not yet 21 years old when this film was released, so the idea that her character would have been an experienced detective, apparently a member of a small squad assigned to take down a dangerous serial rapist who has been murdering women with sadistic glee all over the country, is a little silly, and that's before her coming to grips with him.
Their second encounter sees her kidnapped, tortured, and raped again, but she manages to get the better of him and kills him. At this point the film is only half way through, so the dude comes back to life. Considering the beating she handed out to him including a bullet, and kicking him into a fast moving river, it is stretching the imagination to suggest he could have both survived and got away. This is the twist in the film, as they say.
Okay, it isn't a bad one, but the big question has to be why would any director cast his own daughter in such a grotesque role as this?
