1h 34m
Directed by Aldo Lado • 1972 • Italy
Starring George Lazenby, Anita Strindberg, Nicoletta Elmi
Former Bond star George Lazenby headlines this classic giallo directed by Aldo Lado—as compelling for its haunting atmosphere, twists, and turns as for its parallels with another great Venetian horror-thriller: Nicolas Roeg’s DON’T LOOK NOW. Sculptor Franco Serpieri (Lazenby) welcomes Roberta (Nicoletta Elmi), his young daughter from a failed marriage, to Venice, unaware that a disturbed child-killer is stalking the city’s canals. When Roberta’s body is found floating face-down in the river, the lives of Franco and his estranged wife Elizabeth (Anita Strindberg) are ripped asunder. Desperate for vengeance, Franco turns detective in a bid to track down his daughter’s killer, and in the process unearths shocking evidence of depravity and corruption which implicates some of the most respected figures in Venetian society.
