Giancarlo Giannini in his screen debut |
As a young boy, Christian came across a mirrored room where his father brutalized and murdered women. Now an adult, Christian (Giancarlo Giannini of Black Belly of the Tarantula) returns to his father's beautiful mansion after the man's death with his wife, Helene (Dominique Boschero), estate trustee Paul (Luciano Pigozzi), and Paul's dizzy blond wife, Brigitte (Mara Maryl). Christian has three months before he will come into complete control of his father's assets, but for now Paul is in charge. Christian is terribly afraid that he has inherited his father's malevolent tendencies, or that one or more of the others are conspiring against him. He also is afraid that his father may still be alive ...
Dominique Boschero and Mara Maryl |
Verdict: Any movie that begins with a quote from Sigmund Freud can't be all bad -- or that good! **1/4.

Adorable, Giannini was, especially in his first film.
Wasn't that him having to go to bed with a 350 lb woman in some movie?
