A beautiful young masseuse becomes entangled in the lives of her wealthy and eccentric clients as she offers her services across a glamorous but morally ambiguous social scene. Beneath the surface of sensuality and charm lies a web of manipulation, jealousy, and emotional desperation. As her presence disrupts the balance of power and desire, the line between professional and personal dangerously blurs.
-
This sexy giallo mixes in mild soft-core with equally mild gore but emerges as surprisingly enjoyable on the whole. … The thriller angle is less than thrilling, however. The various kill scenes are indifferently staged and do not have the benefit of convincing make-up effects. The murderer’s identity is also fairly easy to guess early on in the film. That is not to say that the film is a complete failure. It is entertaining enough on its own modest level, but a little more inspiration in the plotting and execution of the murder scenes would have elevated it considerably.
