Im Auftrag des geheimnisvollen Louis Cyphre begibt sich der heruntergekommene Privatdetektiv Harry Angel auf die Suche nach dem einst erfolgreichen Schlagersänger Johnny Favorite. Was zunächst aussieht wie ein Routinefall, entwickelt sich bald zum Alptraum: Finstere Voodoo-Zeremonien, Ritualmorde, Teufelsanbeter und Schwarze Magie erwarten Angel. Allmählich kommt er dem Rätsel auf die Spur - was er entdeckt, wird ihm jedoch zum Verhängnis ... Unvergesslich ist die geniale Verfilmung dieses Krimiklassikers mit Robert de Niro und Mickey Rourke in den Hauptrollen.
