3/10
Indecipherable Giallo-ish "Thriller"...
30 July 2007
Warning: Spoilers
LA POLIZIA BRANCOLA NEL BUIO is an Italian film that unfortunately I can't tell you much about. I don't speak Italian, and being that this is another no subs/no dubs disc for me, I can't really give a thorough synopsis of what happens - but in a nutshell:

A woman is stabbed by an unidentified person wielding a pair of scissors when her car breaks down on a deserted road. The rest of the "action" of the film takes place in a house where the same killer starts knockin' off most of the chicks that are staying there. There seems to be some sort of side plot about a paralyzed guy who fidgets with some sort of mechanical gadget in a secret room that may or may not control a mask with a flashing eye in the dining area that may or may not exhibit some sort of mind-control over guests at the house...

Sorry - that's about as good as it gets with this one. LA POLIZIA BRANCOLA NEL BUIO seemed to have some giallo-ish elements, but unfortunately I can't even really verify that, as giallo films typically rely heavily on storyline, and again - I just didn't understand this one. The film appeared to be made on about a six-dollar budget and visually the film offered very little appeal. I'm trying to be fair with a rating given that I understand that the majority of my issue with it has to do with my lack of understanding the language - but for real - the kill scenes are weak as hell, and there's a few tits on display but no full-frontal. If I could have understood the plot, I may have given it another point (or maybe not...) as it is....3/10 from me...
