Scissors (1991)
It may be fifteen years too late and an American production rather than filmed at Cinecitta but Scissors is a giallo in all but name.
A sexually repressed young woman, a fine early performance from Sharon Stone by the way. A horrific attack by an unknown assailant in an appartment block lift. A pair of decidedly odd twins, played by Steve Railsback. Scissors found in bodies, a creepy collection of porcelain dolls, and the womans near breakdown as she ends up trapped in a furnished but abandoned appartment.
A fine mind bending thriller that deserves an audience especially as you can still pick up the decent widescreen dvd for pence.
