Description
Considered a modern classic in France, Afraid to Death is a chilling psychological thriller with a hallucinogenic quality. Joe Egan is on the run. A mysterious blonde appears to him whenever someone close to him dies. He lives his life in fear of her, but at the same time develops a strange fascination with her. Who is the blonde woman? Is she a figment of his imagination, the angel of death, or even the devil incarnate?
