The Sister Of Ursula (1978)



An incredibly sleazy giallo from director Enzo Milioni starring Suspiria's Barbara Magnolfi that really doesn't have much to recommend it.
 The usual black gloved killer is on the loose in a coastal hotel with a choice of weapon that has to be seen to be believed.
 The flesh quota is cranked up to the level usually found in a Jess Franco flic and indeed a few of the shots around the hotel and coastal locations reminded me of any number of Franco's films. There's also a very Rollinesque (?!) scene in an underground cavern that while stylishly shot feels out of place and as a result just adds to the overall disjointed feel of the movie.
 Not a high point in Italian cinema that's for sure.
