Plot of Fear

Corinne Cléry (Hitch-Hike), Michele Placido (The Pyjama Girl Case), Tom Skerritt (Alien), and Eli Wallach (The Lineup) star in Plot of Fear (E tanta paura), a dark and perverse thriller from director Paolo Cavara (Mondo Cane, The Black Belly of the Tarantula). Inspector Lomenzo (Placido) investigates a series of bizarre murders, each linked by the fact that pages from the German children's book Shock-Headed Peter have been left at the scene of the crime. As the bodies pile up, Lomenzo is guided by a model (Cléry) and a surveillance expert (Wallach) to a decadent club frequented by the rich and powerful. Co-written by long-time Federico Fellini collaborator Bernadino Zapponi (who also co-wrote Dario Argento's Deep Red), and incorporating a specially produced erotic animation by Francesco Maurizio Guido aka Gibba (best-known for his comic cartoon King Dick), Plot of Fear is a disturbing and engrossing giallo.
