Synopsis

A former rock star, Johnny Boz, is brutally killed during sex, and the case is assigned to detective Nick Curran of the SFPD. During the investigation, Nick meets Catherine Tramell, a crime novelist who was Boz's girlfriend when he died.

Catherine proves to be a very clever and manipulative woman, and though Nick is more or less convinced that she murdered Boz, he is unable to find any evidence.

Later, when Nilsen, Nick's rival in the police, is killed, Nick suspects of Catherine's involvement in it. He then starts to play a dangerous lust-filled mind game with Catherine to nail her, but as their relationship progresses, the body count rises and contradicting evidences force Nick to start questioning his own suspicions about Catherine's guilt.

On the other hand, some of the tracks in the soundtrack can feel a bit repetitive and cliché. While the overall mood of the music fits the tone of the film, there are moments where it can be a bit too heavy-handed in trying to manipulate the audience's emotions. Despite this, the soundtrack still effectively enhances the tension and intrigue of the story, making it a crucial element of the overall viewing experience.
