8/10
Campy giallo from Spain.
2 June 2010
"A Dragonfly for Each Corpse" along with "Blue Eyes of a Broken Doll" is unquestionably the best Spanish giallo of early 70's.Paul Naschy plays Inspector Scaporella,who investigates a series of brutal murders committed by mysterious Dragonfly Killer.He or she kills various degenerates,drug users and prostitutes in Milan.The killer is particularly merciless as he axes to death one man and two women during one episode of mass murder.His or her trademark is to leave dragonfly or a high-fashion button on the bodies of freshly slaughtered victims.It seems that he killer's modus operandi is reminiscent of the ancient sect of the Caldeans...Trashy and campy giallo with several sadistic killings and a healthy dose of sleaze.Naschy performance is pretty over-the-top and it's nice to see Eurohorror regular Erica Blanc in her another outrageous role.8 out of 10.
