This giallo, crime film hybrid has plenty of charm and atmosphere. The set up anticipates later, cynical thrillers like Mario Bava’s Five Dolls for an August Moon (1970) and Twitch of the Death Nerve (1971), as a group of greedy, scummy people gather together in an isolated locale in the hopes of screwing each other over for a large sum of money. The concept may not be anything new, but it is developed and executed in an engaging fashion. That the film is so obscure is a pity, as it surely has plenty to recommend; if anything, it proves to be livelier than many of the would-be Gothic thrillers of the period.
