Strip Nude for Your Killer (1975)

If you compare Andrea Bianchi's Strip Nude for Your Killer to other giallos of the era, it will undoubtedly come up short, especially in plot. During the time this was originally released it was a rule-breaker for the copious amounts of bare flesh (including the sexpot Edwige Fenech) and a few controversial and gory scenes. The sleaze factor is high in this one and the gratuitous nudity is so blatant it's laughable. The murder mystery story is pretty plain and lacks the psychological bells and whistles which usually accompany such films. They attempted to create shock value with the opening abortion scene and subsequent gruesome mutilations, but it adds little allure to the film.
