When a local florist gets killed by a stabbing, Paul Schrader, whose colleagues refer to him as ‘The Snapper,” along with a police psychologist named Claudia Lost hunt down the perpetrator. All signs are pointing toward a village policeman who has gone off the rails and wound up addicted to morphine. The fact that they solved the mystery so quickly leaves The Snapper a little suspicious about if they caught the right person or not.
Most of the nudity featured in this TV movie is pretty morbid. Beate Jensen, who plays Maria Sandel, opens up her shirt to show a right tit, and it’s all covered in blood. And Therese Hämer is lying out on a slab in the morgue with her chest unveiled while a group of people hover over her. Let’s get The Snapper on the case for finding us some live and unharmed flesh to gawk at!
