THE AMERICAN BLU-RAY PREMIERE
The screenwriter of classics that include SO SWEET... SO PERVERSE, THE STRANGE VICE OF MRS. WARDH, ALL THE COLORS OF THE DARK and TORSO, Ernesto Gastaldi made his directorial debut with one of the most groundbreaking yet criminally underseen gialli of them all: When a small boy witnesses his father kill a woman during an S&M session, he'll grow into a disturbed young man (Oscar® nominee Giancarlo Giannini in his film debut) tormented by images of violence, perversion, madness and murder. Dominique Boschero (WHO SAW HER DIE?), Luciano Pigozzi (WEREWOLF IN A GIRLS' DORMITORY) and Gastaldi's beloved wife/muse/co-writer Mara Maryl (SCREAMS IN THE NIGHT) co-star in this Freudian gothic freak-out, now featuring a 2K scan from the dupe negative and an all-new interview with the writer/director.
