The Murders in the Rue Morgue (1986)

In the shadowy backstreets of Paris, a mother and daughter are found brutally murdered, their deaths shrouded in layers of mystery that baffle the police. The only evidence is a room with windows firmly nailed shut and neighbors who swear no one left the premises. The solution seems as elusive as the killer, and the police find themselves lost in a spider's web of enigmas. Enter Auguste Dupin, a once-respected member of the police force, now sidelined by the new prefect. However, Dupin is not one to retreat into obscurity. Drawn back into the folds of crime-solving at the behest of his daughter, whose fiancé stands accused of the heinous act, Dupin embarks on a solitary quest for justice. As he delves deep into the labyrinthine intrigue of the case, Dupin crafts a tapestry of clues and conjectures, weaving together an unexpected narrative that could crack the case wide open. The Murders in the Rue Morgue is a riveting tale of mystery, deduction, and one man's relentless pursuit of the truth.
