I read several of the reviews by other people who had purchased this movie so I went in knowing what to expect from this typical '70's style Italian giallo slasher whodunit. As such, it delivered exactly as promised: lots of mysterious murders of women who, before, during, or after getting killed, lose their tops.

The female cast are all very attractive and the killer is cunningly concealed until the last reel, so it's all good fun. The movie does suffer a bit from being dated by today's faster-paced ultra-violent offerings, but as a period piece it really delivers and is a great addition to the collection.

Great gialli from Sergio Martino. While not as glamorous as his other outings like "Case Of The Scorpion's Tail" or "The Strange Vice Of Mrs. Wardh", it still does entertain in that special gialli way. It toured the US a great deal in the '70s and, with "Twitch of the Death Nerve", really helped lay the foundation for the modern slasher movie. While it does remove some of the whodunit in exchange for a more horror final act, it is still a gialli full of gorgeous naked women, crazy surreal 70s camerawork, and plenty of gore courtesy of a psycho with a knife.

A good, solid giallo movie in which a bevy of beauties are picked off one by one by a masked killer. Like all giallos there are plenty of suspects but the killer's identity isn't revealed until the last minute.

One of the best Giallo's not just of the 1970's but any period. Suspenseful, violent, and an excellent climax with the killer's identity well hidden untill the end. Only let down would be for gore hounds on the film's well known cuts here in the U.S. Joseph Brenner had the most violent scenes edited before submitting them the to the MPAA, but most of the footage would have gotten an "R" rating anyway. Just don't expect this to be "Twitch of the Death Nerve".
