7 Blood-Stained stars (out of 10)
17 January 2005
A killer with black gloves is murdering women and leaving silver crescent moon emblems on their bodies in this Umberto Lenzi directed film, which is quite a good deal easier to follow then his later made "Spasmo". Mr. Lenzi was never in the same league as, say Dario Argento or even Sergio Martino, but for me this film of his came the closest to either of them. The acting is good, although the DVD-version that I own sadly doesn't contain a sub-titled original language version. That's the only grip that I can think of right now. If you love the giallo sub-genre like I, you would do yourself well by seeing this one.

My Grade: B-

DVD Extras: Gabriella Giorgelli; Interview with Umberto Lenzi; liner notes; Art Gallery; Theatrical Trailer; Trailers for "Eaten Alive" and "Spasmo"

Eye Candy: Gabriella Giorgelli's mammoth melons get unleashed; Marina Malfatti does the same but pales in comparison; and a few hippie extras
