Help Remembering/Identifying A Film
 

A long time ago I read a review, possibly here, of an Italian horror film from the 70's (probably) that sounded moderately interesting, but not all that good. I also think that was the reviewer's assessment as well. Unfortunately, all that I can really remember from the review was a screen shot of a lovely lady in a giant, but cheap looking, spider's web. The screen shots showed off a Bava-esque color scheme and, if I remember correctly, the film was a cross between surreal giallo thriller and some supernatural elements. What I do remember from the review is that the reviewer gushed over how lovely the lead actress was and said that the film was worth seeing for that alone.

Now that a lot of old Italian films can be found on YouTube, I've been hunting down some of the second and third tier films that didn't seem interesting enough to blind buy, but still peaked my curiosity. And this was one of them.

Any thoughts as to what this might be?

I have a feeling this is an Erika Blanc film. I know the scene you speak of, our primarily foreign language channel use to show these Euro films all the time, although sadly they don't anymore (and my SBS reception is terrible - so much for digital!). Nightmare Castle or something perhaps? (Goes Google hunting...) No. The Devil's Nightmare. Close enough. :D

What about Jess Franco's Diabolical Dr. Z?

Bloody Pit Of Horror?

Aha! It was "Nude for Satan"! As referenced here: http://www.horrordvds.com/vb3forum/s...ad.php?t=44359

And, after reading some of the reviews, it may not have been worth all that effort. But, thanks for the help.

Rita Calderoni. Oh yes.

I don't have the answer for these kinds of threads usually, but I was actually going to say Nude For Satan. Dang it!

Ha ha! This was the one time I had the answer as well. Gotta be quick next time!
