Review of Naked You Die
- There s nobody there to save you from this nightmare!From the minds of Italian horror kings Mario Bava (Twitch the Death Nerve) and Antonio Margheriti (Cannibal Apocalypse) comes this macabre tale of murder at an all girls school.The corpses are pilling up at St. Hilda s School for Girls leaving top cop Michael Rennie (The Day the Earth Stood Still) with more than usual suspects. Is the killer playboy riding instructor Mark Damon (House of Usher)? Peeping tom Laciano Pigozzi (Baron Blood)? Or how about hulking swim teacher Giovanni Di Benedeeto (The Bird With The Crystal Plumage) whose wetsuit and dive mask make the perfect ensemble for slaughter?Mario Bava s original script Cry Nightmare was entrusted to director Antonio Margheriti Re-titled The Young The Evil and The Savage by American International Pictures the film was hacked of 15 minutes so it could fit onto a double bill with Vincent Prince vehicle The Conqueror Worm. Dark Sky Films presents this early Italian giallo complete and uncut for the first time in North America.Special Features:TrailerStill GalleryEnglish SubtitlesSystem Requirements:Run Time: 98 mins Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: ACTION/ADVENTURE/THRILLERS UPC: 030306813097 Manufacturer No: DVD8130

Paging Nancy Drew
In the DVD's delightfully lurid cover art, a shadowy killer strangles a young blonde whose aroused breasts poke through her underwear. An ancient city burns red in the distance. The text promises "a macabre tale of murder at an all-girls school." In fact, it's fun tale of murder at an all-girls school. This Italian whodunnit from 1968 is more Agatha Christy than Mario Bava (who wrote some of the story). Charming performances from the young cast, especially the British actress Sally Smith as a Nancy Drew wannabe. Michael Rennie wanders through as an inspector. In Italian, first time in the States in an uncut version. "Naked You Die" is the translation of the Italian title. In the States, AIP hacked 15 minutes out of the film and dubbed it "The Young, the Evil and the Savage," which pretty much sums up nothing. Worth seeing for the opening nude bathtube slaying alone.
Score: 4
