    • Trivia
      The movie was narrated by Ljerka Drazenovic, a former news reader and host of Radio Studio B. The Belgrade, Serbia-based radio station was hugely popular in 1980s with its casual type of talk show programming, and played both domestic and international pop and rock music. The real Studio B facilities were used for filming of the scenes in which one of the leading characters, Sofija Mackic (portrayed by Sonja Savic), is running her ficticious radio show.
    • Goofs
      While being introduced in the radio show Spiridon Kopicl corrects Sofija for wrongly accenting his last name, then in a later scene he screams his name in the street, accenting it the same way Sofija did before he corrected her.

    Horror can be fun, but it is even scarier
    When it comes to Serbian (Yugoslavian) horror movies, only masterpieces can be found. They all have unique stories, great actors, excellent camera, good pace and very odd twists in stories.

    "Davitelj" have cult status in Serbia. It is a story about real people in real situations. Scariest thing is fact that serial killer can be your neighbor, or you can be killed 'cose you wearing pants and dislike flowers! When you watching "Davitelj" you laugh, then you scream, and so on. And you scream very loud. And laugh too.

    The movie that you will watch again and again and again,...

    And you'll be infected by very good soundtrack.
