“Dirty Harry is at it again.”

ThrillerCrimeAction

When a young rape victim takes justice into her own hands and becomes a serial killer, it's up to Dirty Harry Callahan, on suspension from the SFPD, to bring her to justice.

VIBE

This is a raw, uncompromising plunge into the dark side of justice. It feels relentlessly tense and morally complex, driven by a visceral sense of retribution. Expect a gritty, hard-boiled atmosphere where the lines between right and wrong blur, leaving a lingering, brutal impact.
