A Diary of a Murderess
Cheap low-budget erotic detective story better known as "Diary of a Murderess, A" ... The beautiful femme fatale (Marisa Mell) gets to the manor house of a rich film producer (Richard Conte) and seduces it over time. I would tell enough, I will just add that a rich man man still has a mentally retarded deaf-mute son, who plays a significant role here. The mysterious woman (psychologist) is of an ominous, opportunistic nature, whose desire for wealth makes her a dangerous and unpredictable person. Contem (license plate - his big earlobes) and beautiful Eurocult actress Marisa Mell ("Diabolik", "One on Top of the Other" etc.) .. The film itself is not so good, there is a lack of tension and some bigger conspiracy, it won't come until the second half of the film, the ending is interesting, but you could wait a bit. Track? Perhaps only because of the magical Marisa (nice performance) and Richard Conte, for whom it was one of his last films, Savini's romantic musical score appealed to me as well.
