Who Saw Her Die?
A young girl is brutally murdered somewhere in France. Sometime later, the same thing happens to the daughter of a well-known sculptor. This time the parents (the sculptor and his wife) start investigating, and soon find they are in way over their head. Meanwhile, the body-count keeps rising as the killer now starts butchering all those who find out too much… A superb giallo from Aldo Lado. From the very first scene Lado builds up a tense atmosphere that holds it’s grip on the viewer until the very end. In keeping up with some of the giallo’s best trademarks, this film has excellent photography, making good use of Venice’s enchanting scenery. Ennio Morricone’s haunting musical score is another huge plus.
