Viewing Notes

The murder scenes are gleefully goofy. This is basically a movie about prostitutes effectively unionizing to protect themselves from a serial killer and cops who are more interested in locking them up than tracking down the murderer. The plot twist feels like something that would be more at home in an Argento giallo.
