Three criminals, a wounded comrade, and an isolated villa—hospitality turns deadly in this Italian crime thriller.
THE KILLERS ARE OUR GUESTS
After a bungled diamond heist a trio of killers take refuge at the home of a country doctor and force him at gunpoint to attend to their mortally wounded colleague. They abuse the doctor and take sexual advantage of his wife. But everything is not as it seems.
When robbing Milanese jewelry stores doesn’t pan out, there’s always the countryside—just hope your doctor’s not too handy.
If you like your home invasions with a side of Milanese noir and a dash of exploitation, Vincenzo Rigo’s tense 87-minute stand-off delivers. The cast, including Anthony Steffen and Margaret Lee, keeps the pressure simmering as criminal hospitality takes an especially grim turn.
