This
is the story of a young woman who moves into a boarding house run by an
older lady only to discover the place has a dark and sinister past. Seemingly,
for numerous decades females have been disappearing without trace from
the boarding house. The reason behind the missing girls has to do with
a sect of sadists conducting flesh rituals.
Here
is a completely uncut version of this Italian S&M thriller starring a
bevy of European starlets including Daniela Giordano, former Miss Italy
(1967), in the lead. She would star in 40+ films (including VICE
WEARS BLACK HOSE, the sex comedy SWEET
TEEN, INQUISITION
and the Spaghetti Western HAVE
A GOOD FUNERAL...SARTANA WILL PAY) before retiring in 1980.
There
is a mystery
surrounding the identify of the director. While it's true that William
L Rose is a real person in the entertainment business, he has worked
almost exclusively in America as a cinematographer and scripter for American
grindhouse films, usually produced by Dick Randall [namely WHITE
SLAVES OF CHINATOWN and OLGA'S
GIRLS]. When Randall moved his business to Europe in 1966, he
continued to use the William L Rose moniker as 'scriptwriter' for
some projects even though it's generally believed that American Rose had
nothing to do with the productions (i.e., a 1968 German TV movie
Fentons Völlig Verrückte Erfindung [Fenton's Totally
Crazy Invention]). Today, some sources give directing credit for this
film to producer Dick Randall, under the alias Robert H. Oliver. But that
is highly unlikely as the 'Robert
Oliver' pseudonym was used the previous year for THE
CASTLE OF CURSED WOMEN, a film thought to be actually helmed by
Mario Mancini (ORGIES
OF FRANKENSTEIN). Best guess at this point is: Mancini was probably
the director for this film as well as the aforementionedCASTLE
OF CURSE WOMEN. Mr Mancini, passed away in 2009 at age 76, while
Dick Randall died at 70 in 1996. There is also some speculation that William
L Rose never existed at all, rather that he was always yet another Dick
Randall pseudonym.
