A bit more energy than some of Lenzi's more sluggish films... there is some good tension here between the characters. It is well acted. Again, with most of Lenzi's work, all of the events don't quite add up when all is said and done, but at least the ride was fun and engaging! Very low body count. This one is not about giallo violence and focuses more on the emotional journey of the characters in the wake of a mysterious death.

Watched this on Tubi TV in March 2021. This is a great thriller with a beautiful looking cast, stunning scenery and a crisp transfer. The plot centers around two women who conspire to kill a man who has been a lover to both of them and then things go haywire. Great little thriller and the scenery and beautiful cast make this film definitely worth the watch.

The third teaming of actress Carroll Baker with director Umberto Lenzi, yet another sex-and-murder soap opera made in Italy after Baker's Hollywood fortunes had dried up (temporarily, anyway). Here, Carroll is a racecar driver who cracks up on the track; she takes refuge with her handsome ex-husband, who has remarried a wealthy older woman with a daughter from a previous marriage. Double and triple crosses--as well as scenes featuring a *, unblushing Baker--are in abundance, yet the 'shocking' plot taxes one's patience, particularly since the characters are so vapid. Excellent point-of-view cinematography from the driver's seat lends the narrative far more excitement than the guessing game of who is sleeping with who. ** from ****
