From the most controversial of all the Italian horror directors, Umberto Lenzi, comes Spasmo - a slick and sick psycho-thriller that stands tall as one of the giallo genre’s most colourful crime-capers. Starring a cast of Euro-shock veterans, such as sexy Suzy Kendall and the chiselled-chinned Ivan Rassimov, Lenzi’s carefully paced, and frequently surreal, murder-mystery shows that he is about more than just the gore. A genuinely accomplished achievement, with plot twists galore and a mind-boggling climax, Spasmo is a must-see for anyone who misses the classic era of Rome-based bloodshed. (88 Films)
