A fun giallo with a supernatural atmosphere that constantly forces the viewer to change their mind about who the killer might be. Beautiful sets, a fair amount of nudity and kills... plenty of suspense. The ending is a bit disappointing. 6.5/10

A good, atmospheric giallo that combines Agatha Christie with a supernatural element. The story takes place entirely in a magnificent theater complex, the many nooks and crannies of which lend themselves perfectly to the cat-and-mouse game between the murderer and his victims. I watched the film in Italian without subtitles, but it was still quite easy to follow thanks to the visual approach. There are several versions of this film, some censored and some uncensored. In my case, I saw the uncensored version, in which most of the women take off their clothes at some point. That's a welcome change, and it's also short enough that the film doesn't slow down the pace, so it remains a thriller.
