Movie Reviews of Killer Must Kill Again

Movie Review: He Will Not Stop Until He Kills You
Summary: 4 Stars

Famous for his fantasy films that starred Lou Ferrigno ("Hercules," "The Adventures of Hercules," and "Sinbad of the Seven Seas") Italian exploitation director Luigi Cozzi brings us the superb thriller "The Killer Must Kill Again." As the title suggests, there is a psychotic mad man who will kill, and keep on killing, in order to get back the car that was stolen from him. Inside its trunk is the corpse of his latest victim.

Michel Antoine does an excellent portrayal of the creepy, vile serial killer. He is hired by the equally slimy, but extremely handsome and charming, Giorgio Mainardi (giallo king George Hilton of "The Case of the Scorpion's Tail," "The Strange Vice of Mrs. Wardh," and "All the Colors of the Night" - all of which were directed by the genius of Sergio Martino). The lovely Cristina Galbo ("The House that Screamed," "What Have You Done to Solange?" and "Let Sleeping Corpses Lie") is relentlessly pursued and horribly accosted by the serial killer.

The tension in this movie will have you sweating bullets as you watch the killer pursue his potential victims. The seascapes are gorgeous. There is a vast contrast between the wealthy, ultra-modern d?cor of Giorgio Mainardi's home and the decaying ruins of the seaside village where the killer stalks his prey. A gruesome rape scene is quite disturbing and not for the feint of heart; it reminded me of the brutality depicted by "The Last House on the Left."

Will the serial killer be caught and his reign of terror come to an end? Will Giorgio be arrested for plotting the death of his wife? These are a couple of the questions that labeled this film as a "giallo" (Italian mystery). Regarded as a classic, "The Killer Must Kill Again" has been given the royal treatment by Mondo Macabro. Resplendent with plenty of extras (including full length commentary), it has been presented in a pristine widescreen edition with optional Italian mono and English subtitles. This is a must have for collectors of Italian gialli; it has been hailed as one of the best of its kind.

Also released by Mondo Macabro, and highly recommended, is "The French Sex Murders." This is a lesser known giallo but highly entertaining with its ultra-bizarre plot and cast of international stars.

Summary of Killer Must Kill Again

Director Luigi Cozzi ("Starcrash") made his feature film debut with this dark and disturbing thriller, very much in the mold of his mentor Dario Argento. Although regarded as a classic by fans of Italian horror, the film has been almost impossible to see for many years. This DVD debut is its first official US video release.

A rich womanizer (George Hilton) plans to murder his wife. He blackmails a man into doing the evil deed for him. The car with the murdered woman's corpse is stolen by a pair of joyriders. The vicious killer sets off in pursuit - with more than just murder on his mind this time.

Previously released in a cut, full-screen version, this DVD returns the film to its original length and is presented in a digitally restored format, enhanced for widescreen TVs.
