WHO KILLED TEDDY BEAR?

Joseph Cates, USA, 1965, Vinegar Syndrome, Arthouse

One of the darkest stories to ever come of out of the Big Apple, WHO KILLED TEDDY BEAR? is a dark and twisted dive into toxic masculinity featuring a shocking central performance from Sal Mineo (REBEL WITHOUT A CAUSE). When a club singer receives a string of obscene calls from a mysterious stalker, her pleas for help get her caught between the desires of two damaged men: the tragic detective looking to catch her harasser, and the shy coworker (Sal Mineo) whose boyish looks disguise a dangerous dark side. Infamously rejected by the British Board of Film Classification and misunderstood by both audiences and critics of the era, WHO KILLED TEDDY BEAR? has since gone on to inspire countless genre classics since and proven its rightful place as a harrowing New York City masterpiece.
