- Quotes
Journalist: There hasn't been a child murder in Venice for years. Got any clues, Inspector?
Inspector De Donati: I'm afraid not. In this type of killing, the motive is psychological. Whoever did it is insane. But with a little luck, we will manage to catch him.
Journalist: I don't think you can catch pneumonia!
An acceptable but disjointed Giallo with thrills, chills, high body-count , nudism, confusing plot, gory effects, and a lot twists and turns. Ordinary Gialli with its usual elements : a murderer with gloves, barroque style, sadistic and ritualized ominous killings, unsettling and disturbing scenarios as interior as exterior. It results to be a twisted and complex Giallo based on a creepy story with script from Francisco Barilli and director Aldo Lado himself. The main interest resides in finding out the murderer on loose and watching the non-sense crimes, as well as seeing the surprising faces of the victims being killed and their bellies being ripped open with a knife. Starring the skinny George Lazenby, ex-007, along with Anita Strindberg, a Scandinavian actress regular on Italian Giallos , both of whom give mediocre interpretations. They are well accompanied by some Italian actors, usual in B-films, such as Adolfo Celi of Thunderball , Rosemarie De Lindt and the beautiful Dominique Boschero, habitual in Peplum and Spaghetti Western.
It contains an atmospheric and evocative cinematography by Franco Di Giacomo, showing splendidly palaces, houses , streets, bridges, cannels, and docks from Venice. Special mention for the classy and prolific composer Ennio Morricone, he composes a really frightening and eerie soundtrack, especially when assassinations happen. The motion picture was professional but regularly written and directed by Aldo Lado. He is a good writer and filmmaker who has directed a few films with great casts . His first film was a giallo titled The short night of the butterflies or Paralysed or Malastrana with ingrid Thulin, Jean Sorel. After directing the extremely violent : Last stop in night train. Following other movies with not much success such as : La cosa buffa, La disubbidienza, La cugina and Il nocturno di Chopin. Aldo Lado even made a Scifi movie with international cast titled The Humanoid. Rating : 5.5/10. Acceptable and passable giallo that will appeal to Italian Thriller aficionados.
