Review:
Dario has done it again! Another interesting, stylish and delicious giallo with several absurdities that of course make it even more charming! The story takes place around a blind man who loves puzzles (and his young niece) and well he used to work for the paper. When he hears an odd conversation in front of the genetic institute that he probably shouldn't hear he gets his young niece to catch a glimpse. When the man she sees ends up dead the next day the blind man and his daughter work with a reporter to figure out what the heck is going on. This has some fantastic deaths and violence that I didn't expect and some wonderful twists and it's groovy! It's everything a giallo should be and then some and the music from Ennio was wonderful! This is a definite must on all sides, it's easy to follow even though it's odd and it does all tie up nicely, highly recommended.
