Here
is an entertaining Italian-made movie, filmed at the height of the Giallo
period. Like HOT
LIPS OF THE EXECUTIONER [Killer Wore Gloves], this is a European
Wo-Dun-It thriller set in upper class Great Britain.
After
the chairman of a large UK company dies in an [apparent, but not really]
accidental plane explosion, a fierce battle breaks out for his successor,
resulting in numerous brutal deaths. Besides the surprise ending, this
film benefits from impeccable cinematography by Sergio Leone's cameraman
Giuseppe Bernardini [here credited as Jerry Delawaree] and very cool
music by long-time Federico Fellini composer Carlo Savina. However,
probably the very best thing about this film is beautiful Gloria Guida
in her prime.
