Nothing Underneath (1985)
A park ranger in USA feels a psychic connection to his twin sister who is working as a model in Milan. When the park ranger feels her sister being murdered he travels to Milan to find out what's going on. As there's no sign of his sister and the police don't believe the psychic link, he starts to investigate the cocaine flooded model industry himself. But as soon another body is found killed in the same manner with scissors as the man saw his sister being killed, then even the Interpol gets interested. Soon enough there seems to be a serial killer on the loose killing beautiful models. The story is quite basic giallo with a setting that suits it perfectly. There are couple of twists to the story but it's nothing special as you see them coming a mile away. Lots of nudity as usual, but this time the murder sequences are quite mild which doesn't bring down the mood at all. The cast is fairly ok and even Donald Pleasence manages to break out from his Halloween manners. The score by Pino Donaggio is quite great and fits the movie perfectly. The pace is a bit slow and as there's not much story to be told it tends to get a bit boring at parts. Still I didn't have too much trouble getting through it, mostly thanks to the beautiful ladies, the music and at parts quite nice cinematography. So all in all this is a very average giallo, not good but not bad either.
