Murder Psalm

“In my novel ‘The Devils’ I attempted to depict the complex and heterogeneous motives which may prompt even the purest of heart and the most naive people to take part in an absolutely monstrous crime.” – Dostoyevsky’s “The Diary of a Writer” “‘Murder Psalm’ is a vision of blood on the tracks, a response to the daily diet of T.V. death, to death in the raw, to childhood terror … a dense texture of swiftly crossing viewpoints, image placed against image, in a film of impassioned intensity.” – A. L. Rees, British Film Institute
