Featured review
An Italian/Spanish Giallo with plenty of grisly murders , chills , and plot twists .
Decent Spanish/Italian dealing with a killing spree with a lot of suspect people . Concerning Kitty : Nieves Navarro or Susan Scott playing a photographer who using a tourist telescope watches a grisly killing executed by a masked man against a woman through the window of a nearby building . Later on , Kitty reports the incident to the Police and a tough Inspector : George Martin starts investigating . She then finds herself chased by the mysterious series killer . Screaming can't save you from his steely blade !. There are several suspicious people . Who's the killer ? . Will the beautiful photographer be the next victim?
The ordinary slasher packs suspense , chilling scenes , intriguing events , nudism , twists and turns . Maurizio Pradeaux's big hit Gialli is compellingly made with well staged murders full of startling visual content , though was submitted to strong censorship in Spain . This is a costumary slasher in which tension, intrigue , suspense appear threatening in every room , corridor , parks , and other interior and exterior scenarios . The movie displays atmospheric blend of creepy chills , eerie setting with frightening set pieces as the killer attacks , combined with a twisted finale . It packs lots of blood when murders take place , but it seems pretty mild compared to today's gore feasts . The well staged killings are the highlights of the movie , they deliver the goods filled with screams , shocks and tense . Stars Nieves Navarro or Susan Scott who played various Gialli , along with Simon Andreu , usually produced or directed by her husband Luciano Ercoli, such as : Death walks on high heels , The forbidden photos of a Lady above of suspicion , Death walks at midnight . Co-stars the Austrian Robert Hoffman who also starred some Giallos , and Simon Andreu , George Martin as a stubborn police inspector and other secondaries as Anuska , Luciano Rossi , Profumo and the prolific Sal Borgese .
The motion picture nicely written/produced by Alfonso Balcazar was professionally directed by Maurizio Pradeaux . Talented and versatile Pradeaux wrote and directed a vast array of often solid and entertaining films in various genres as Poliziottesco, Macaroni Combat , Spaghetti Western , Gialli , Adventure, such as : 28 minutes for 3 million dollars , The Sons of White Fang , Leopardi di Chuchill, Ramon the Mexican , Death steps in the dark , Thrilling love . Rating : 6/10, this is an imaginative slasher picture in which the camera stalks in sinister style throughout a story with attractive visual skills , though contains some flaws and gaps . It will appeal to hardcore Gialli fans.
