Theater Watchman: But I didn't do it! I didn't do it! You've gotta believe me, I didn't do it!
Piero's Assistant: [leaving the scene] We've identified the weapon, Inspector ... It was the same one he used to kill both Nicola's wife and the nurse.
Inspector Piero Terzi: So you'd say it's the same person. Do you really think Nicola's a sex maniac?
Piero's Assistant: I didn't say that. It could be the janitor.
Inspector Piero Terzi: Yeah, I don't think so. He's got a good alibi besides.

The plot begins with a man named Nicola (Leonardo Treviglio) who discovers his wife is cheating on him and after a violent argument she is murdered and he becomes the prime suspect. Soon more young women begin to die at the hands of the maniac, is Nicola the killer or is it someone else?
Trying to find a classic Giallo flick from the late 80's onwards is a hard task, and you'll have to look through a lot of lesser efforts just to find anything decent. But sadly, this movie isn't quite a lost gem waiting to be discovered, instead this is a by the numbers Giallo that has been forgotten for a reason. The lack of suspense and violent or interesting death scenes really hurts this film and given that it was a made for TV production I can't fault the director on that one. Instead we get a mystery that isn't very compelling and a bunch of flatly written characters and wooden performances.
Overall 'You'll Die at Midnight' is certainly not the worst Giallo out there, it's just very average at best.
