Good dope is becoming rare in the North of Paris. Drugstores are being raided by junkies and gangs are nervous, fighting each others: the 'Viets', the 'Blackies', the 'Arabs', the neo-nazis 'Justiciers' and some mean gays. Vincent (Daniel Auteuil) is the good cop coming from Marseilles where he was a gangster. He's a soft method guy but also kicks assses hard and throw lethal dialog lines when needed. With the precious help of 'l'Arbalète'* (Marisa Berenson**), a tox' prostitute ex-member of Vincent's former gang, he will try to put order in that mess. There's also a violent and racist cop (Marcel Bozzuffi), Algeria veteran with hard methods, whose role could be more than to protect and to serve.

살인귀 크랍시(Cropsy: 로우 데이빗 분)는 때와 장소를 불문하고 각지에 출몰하여 닥치는 대로 잔인한 학살을 계속한다. 목격자의 증언에 의하면 그의 흉기는 거대한 가위같다고 한다. 조사에 따르면 크랍시는 수년전에 사고로 전신 화상을 입고 흉한 모습이 되어 세상으로부터 자취를 감춘 뒤, 자신을 저주받은 운명으로 만든 자들에게 복수의 칼을 휘두르는 것으로 추측된다. 엄중한 지명 수배의 수사망을 뚫고 어디로 사라졌으며, 그의 목적은 무엇이며 언제, 어디서 참혹한 희생이 발생할지도 모르는 상태에서 크랍시는 사람들을 끝없는 불안과 공포의 분위기로 몰아 넣는다.
