Épouvante sur New-York
5.718
Les forces de police de New York se retrouvent sur une nouvelle affaire des plus étranges. Un laveur de carreaux est retrouvé décapité sur son lieu de travail, sur une façade d’immeuble, alors que d’autres disparaissent en haut des gratte-ciels dans une gerbe de sang ! Plus bas, dans la rue, un petit arnaqueur raté se retrouve embrigadé malgré lui dans le hold-up d’un diamantaire. Entre les deux, la police retrouve des corps mutilés qui laisseraient à penser qu’une personne dans la ville commet des crimes rituels.

Another World

Jun 25, 1999
Another World is an American television soap opera that ran on NBC for 35 years from May 4, 1964 to June 25, 1999. Set in the fictional town of Bay City, the show in its early years opens with announcer Bill Wolff intoning its epigram, “We do not live in this world alone, but in a thousand other worlds,” which Phillips said represented the difference between “the world of events we live in, and the world of feelings and dreams that we strive for.” Another World focused less on the conventional drama of domestic life as seen in other soap operas, and more on exotic melodrama between families of different classes and philosophies.
