Plot of Fear tells the story of a decadent weekend party full of orgies and drugs on the outskirts of Milan.

As the bodies pile up, Lomenzo is guided by a model and a surveillance expert to a decadent club frequented by the rich and powerful.

Viewing Notes
Very roundabout giallo that features Tom Skerritt and Eli Wallach dubbed in Italian. It’s almost RASHOMON-like but really just an unreliable narrator scenario as a flashback sequence is explained in different ways. I like this flick and wouldn’t mind adding to my small collection of gialli.
