The Case of the Bloody Iris
Special Movie for Halloween Day! 🎃✨️🧡> “You don't care who the real murderer is so long as somebody fries for it!”
WOWWW what a dazzling blend of mystery, glamour, and danger. this movie perfectly captures the golden spirit of Italian giallo (especially the same killer’s style; wearing a mask and gloves, reminds me with Blood and Black Lace movie, etc.) ALSO THIS MOVIE LOOKS SOOO SPECIAL cuz i saw Edwige and George’s great chemistry again after The Strange Vice of Ms. Wardh!

this movie follows Jennifer Lansbury (played by Edwige Fenech), a beautiful model trying to rebuild her life after leaving a mysterious cult and her pervert ex-husband, she moved into a luxurious apartment building in the heart of the city. her arrival coincides with a string of brutal murders. young women found dead in the same building under eerie and violent circumstances. with her new lover Andrea (played by George Hilton), Jennifer begins to uncover fragments of the truth but the deeper they dig, the more twisted the puzzle becomes
I LOVE THE PLOT TWIST (yes ikr it’s so giallo movie style) 🩸

as expected from giallo, the movie’s visual style is absolutely hypnotic. bold colors, high-fashion costumes, and shadow-drenched corridors create a world that’s both seductive and terrifying. love how this movie fits for Halloween day so much!

p.s. i wanna say thanks to Rocky for this amazing recommendation xx 🎃✨️

I love Giallos so much. They’re perverted, but like in a classy way.

Film With an Ernesto Gastaldi Script

Cool, occasionally hilarious imagery paired with a ridiculous, uneven storyline … I’ll be honest guys, I’m not sure if giallo films are for me!
