The film's
parallel story line involves a sadistic serial killer and a young couple
involved in twisted sex games. Fabio (Gianni Dei) can only work up the desire
for his wife, Flavia, if she is getting screwed by an outside party. Flavia is
repeatedly humiliated until she has had enough and decides to do in both her
husband and herself.
The only
reason this film gets two stars is the presence of Maria Angela Giordan (THE
SECT) and the over-the-top gore sequences. Since the serial killer is easily
apprehended you begin to feel his sole reason for him being here at all was to
provide the film it's most spectacularly nasty death sequence involving Ms.
Giordan. Very little else in this stupid film deserves merit. This rancid piece
of shit is a travesty of a film. Every character in this film, except poor
Flavia, makes you sick to your stomach. Even the police inspector engages in
the disgusting habit of cramming hard-boiled eggs down his gullet (but why?).
Berto Pisano's score sounds like it belongs in an MGM musical. Did the director
arbitrarily steal from another source and shove it in wherever he felt? This film
is a turd floater of immense proportions.
