Oliviero, a burned-out writer, living at his estate near Venice, is obsessed with his much hated dead mother. He has adopted a totally degenerate lifestyle. Oliviero enjoys humiliating his wife (often a spectacle in front of strangers) and is having sex with his maid and his ex-student. Oliviero regularly hosts Bacchanalia drug parties for local hippies. He may also be a killer. The police think so. Things get more complicated when his niece, Floriana, pays an unexpected visit.

Loosely based on the Edgar Allan Poe story The Black Cat, this film is also notable for providing starlet Edwige Fenech with her first bad girl role. Long considered one of Sergio Martino's best films (if not his best) right along side ALL THE COLORS OF THE DARK
