Underrated Thriller

Carlo Vanzina directs an underrated thriller.

Vanessa Hessler is new to the fashion world. She is hired by the legendary Richard E. Grant, who plays a famous clothing designer. He absolutely owns every scene he is in. Unfortunately, people start dying who have some relationship with the fashion world. Francesco Montanari plays the detective on the case.

There is a lot here to recommend. There is a mystery that's not too obvious. There is some good suspense. Some of the scenes are unpredictable. There is adequate comic relief. I think a major highlight that elevates the film is a memorable score by Pino Donaggio.

Unfortunately, there are homophobic scenes. The film doesn't have much in the way of special effects. Most of the murder scenes are totally forgettable with very little of the red stuff. Many horror fans will be disappointed on this front.
