Le Foto Di Gioia (aka Delirium) (1987)

An ex-model (Serena Grandi) is the publisher of a men's magazine called Pussycat. When the models who work for her magazine start being killed in bizarre ways (stabbed with a pitch fork, stung to death by bees, etc.), the serial killer sends her photos of the victims' bodies surrounded by her old modeling photographs. She begins to suspect it's only a matter of time before the killer gets around to her. Directed by Lamberto Bava (Mario's son). It's an erotic giallo that benefits from some stylish visuals as when the murders are seen through the eyes of the killer's warped mind. There's no shortage of suspects and Bava tosses in a lot of red herrings. Unfortunately, the bosomy Serena Grandi is a lousy actress but it's unlikely she was hired for her acting skills as the film features copious nudity and softcore sex scenes. It should be of interest to gialli fans but of little interest to anyone else unless you have a mammary fetish. With Capucine, Daria Nicolodi, George Eastman, Karl Zinny and Vanni Corbellini.
