Lousy Italian giallo. It starts off with a bang when a woman is stabbed to death within the first 5 minutes! In the same building another woman is later drowned in her tub. Two models--Jennifer (Edwige Fenech) and Marilyn (Paolo Quattrini)--get the apartment of the murdered woman dirt cheap. But it seems the killer is after THEM also.
It may sound interesting but it isn't. For starters the dubbing in this is pretty poor. Lousy music score too. After the first two murders the film quickly becomes boring with at least five sequences of people walking slowly around dark apartments or basements. I was actually fast forwarding through most of that by the end. The storyline gets confusing and there's tons of continuity errors left and right (I was particularly annoyed when one character is stabbed in broad daylight on a crowded street--and no one notices!). There's also homophobia here--a very vicious gay stereotype of a photographer is shown and the one lesbian character is portrayed as predatory. There's the expected gratuitous female nudity and a REAL stupid ending which just threw revelations at you that were more than a little hard to swallow. The acting is real lousy (but the dubbing may be the problem for this). Fenech is a beautiful woman but no actress. George Hilton as her boyfriend was even worse. Look at his "acting" when his fear of blood pops up. To make matters worse the killings aren't even that bloody! Flatly directed too. Boring and stupid Italian giallo. It treats the audience like a bunch of idiots. Avoid.
