The first American feature from Italian cult director Dario Argento, TRAUMA is not as flamboyant and extreme as his previous films but still manages to deliver the goods.
In a city terrorized by a string of decapitation murders, teenaged Aura Petrescu (Asia Argento, the director's daughter) escapes from the Farraday Clinic, where she's being treated for anorexia by Dr. Judd (Frederic Forrest). Attempting suicide, she is rescued by recovered drug addict David
Parsons (Christopher Rydell), then steals his wallet and runs off, only to be caught by police and returned to her parents, professional mediums Adriana (Piper Laurie) and Stefan (Dominique Serrano).
