2/10
More exploitation than anything, really.
10 April 2022
I've watched a lot of giallo films, but this is the most exploitative I've seen yet. You want full-body nudity within the first four minutes? You've got it (though the actress is very thin and almost unhealthy looking)! Do you want nudity so gratuitous that they foist it on you more than once when we should be feeling concerned for a woman clearly distressed and having an episode? Here ya go! Do you want tons of female nudity but no equal male nudity? Have some! Do you want a bunch of women who merely serve as vessels for bodily fluids and then victims? Help yourself! This movie is someone getting a bunch of women he deemed attractive to take their clothes off and very poorly simulate coitus under a thin veneer of filmmaking. Also, what fully grown woman sleeps fully nude (and plays with herself) in the same bed as her sister?

It's sexist and stupid, as many giallo are, but at least the others I've see have tension and an actual plot, even the weird ones. This is a loop of a night of murder, the sisters wake up, argue, be rude, endure unattractive, flawed men, rinse, and repeat. Also, the description for the film says promiscuous women were being killed, but how is a 16-year-old girl in love with her boyfriend "promiscuous"? And finally, this movie continues the giallo tradition of having awful, unattractive, abusive or borderline abusive men with women we're supposed to care about, making them even more unpleasant to watch. This is the most softcore adult film masquerading as a thriller that I've ever seen! Oh, and the music is very repetitive! 2 stars for the location.
