A
serial killer roams the city of Milan, Italy. He uses scissors to butcher
and kill top-models. A park ranger from the US, named Bob Crane, arrives
to protect his sister, but soon finds that she has vanished. Bob starts
searching for her in the dark world of jet-set fashion modeling. But
soon the killer will search for him too.
This
flashy Giallo was initially attached to Italian superstar-filmmaker
Michelangelo Antonioni (director of Blow-Up, Zabriskie Point,
et al). While that may seem a bit of a stretch, it's not so odd
after realizing Blow-Up was - essentially - a Giallo long
before the genre took hold. Unfortunately, a heart attack kept Antonioni
from working on the project (the stroke severely inhibited productivity
until his death in 2007). The project was assigned to studio director
Steno (Stefano Vanzina) who gave it to his son Carlo. Leading actress
Renee Simeson was a top world model at the time of this shoot. However,
she did not parse an acting career, instead continued modeling a few
more years and then secured a psychology degree. Today she is a respected
author and mom of three.
