Blundering fools.

Warning: Spoilers
After accidentally buying a 2nd copy of the satirical Italian Horror The Blood Stained Lawn,I was delighted to discover that the DVD seller had included a surprise "bonus" title on the disc,which led to me getting ready to see the police blunder in the dark.

The plot:

Heading to a photo-shoot ,a fashion models car breaks down.Getting out of the car,a stranger walks up to the model,offering to help fix the car.Suddenly,the stranger pulls a knife out and stabs the women to death.

A few weeks later:

Breaking down miles away from her photo-shoot,a women rushes to a near- by inn to make a phone call to her friend.Due to having planned a wild night with his girlfriend,the fashion model's friend tells her to stay at the inn for the night,and that he will pick her up tomorrow morning.Arriving at the inn,it is soon revealed that the fashion model has mysteriously disappeared.

View on the film:

Working on an extremely low budget,director Helia Colombo covers the film in Grindhouse slime,which goes from showing plenty of the murder victims skin,to being backed by a vibrating score from Aldo Saitto.Along with the Grindhouse grime,Colombo also gives the title an excellent creepy vibe,which goes from the Giallo elements having supernatural undertones,to the suspects having an uneasy "all in the family" which leads to this being a far from blundering Giallo.
