Strip Nude for Your Killer, directed by Andrea Bianchi, is a quintessential giallo film that adheres to the genre’s signature blend of eroticism, graphic violence, and intricate mystery. Originally released in 1975, this film encapsulates the lurid and sensationalist tendencies of giallo cinema, making it both a compelling and controversial entry in the genre.
The narrative revolves around a series of brutal murders targeting employees of a high-fashion modelling agency. The killer, dressed in motorcycle gear, executes victims with a mix of sadistic precision and sexual overtones, a hallmark of giallo films. The story’s structure follows the genre’s typical whodunit format, with a plethora of red herrings and an eventual unmasking of the killer that is both shocking and satisfying.

The gothic mode in Italian horror was effectively launched, and reached its early apotheosis, with the release of Mario Bava’s Black Sunday in 1960. An ensuing tidal wave of likeminded films flooded the market throughout the ’60s, before starting to dry up in the early ’70s, as the more modernist-inclined (and frequently more graphic) giallo came into prominence. Now Severin Films has gathered together four vintage examples of the Italian gothic trend in their new box set Danza Macabra Volume One. When it comes to sex and violence, those two requisite mainstays of the genre, the films run the gamut from almost timidly titillating to unabashedly lurid.
Renato Polselli’s The Monster of the Opera, from 1964, opens with arguably its strongest set piece, which is revealed to have been a dream sequence. This allows Polselli to openly embrace a surrealist aesthetic through oneiric slow motion, tilted cameras, disorienting high- and low-angle shots,...

As the 1970s wore on and audiences began to tire of the tried and tested giallo formula popularized by the thrillers of Argento, Fulci and their contemporaries, filmmakers sought to reinvigorate the ailing movement by injecting elements from other genres. Some took inspiration from the then-burgeoning crime thriller movement, with tales of organised crime and corrupt police officials… while others decided to sex things up by crossing serial killer thrills with salacious softcore antics.
A spate of highly sexualized murders is rocking a prestigious Milanese fashion house. Ambitious photographer Magda and her on-off boyfriend, love rat Carlo, team up to crack the case. But, with the motorcycle helmet-wearing killer clearing bearing a grudge against the agency s employees, it s surely only a matter of time...
