Description: Delitto Carnale is one of my favorite gialli, although it probably isn’t even successful from the perspective of giallo filone. Nor is it a standard giallo or a straightforward thriller. Rather, it’s more an atmospheric piece. The film has a sense of decadence and sadness, which fascinates me. In particular, the lesbian scene was done with a sense of tragic crescendo. Martine, the beautiful protagonist w/ her emotionless face, has an impressive presence here. She has a past, and her dialogue often sounds like monologue.
