Your Vice Is a Locked Room and Only I Have the Key

Product Description Director Sergio Martino and screenwriter Ernesto Gastaldi are at it again with YOUR VICE IS A CLOSED ROOM AND ONLY I HAVE THE KEY, a gore-soaked psycho-thriller in the severed vein of their classic gialli STRANGE VICE OF MRS. WARDH, THE CASE OF THE SCORIPION?S TALE, TORSO and ALL THE COLORS OF THE DARK. Luigi Pistilli (THE GREAT SILENCE, BAY OF BLOOD) is a burned out novelist haunted by the memory of his dead mother and making life miserable for wife Anita Strindberg (THE CASE OF THE SCORPION?S TAIL, A LIZARD IN A WOMAN?S SKIN). When the failed writer?s mistress is found slashed to death, the crime initiates a series of bloody slayings that drive the protagonists to the brink of insanity? and murder. Edwige Fenech (STRANGE VICE OF MRS. WARDH, SECRETS OF A CALL GIRL) and Ivan Rassimov (DEEP RIVER SAVAGES, EATEN ALIVE) co-star in this atypical country-set giallo, which owes more than a passing debt to Edgar Allan Poe?s "The Black Cat" and anticipates the hyper-stylized madness of Dario Argento?s PROFONDO ROSSO and Stanley Kubrick?s THE SHINING. Photographed in lush widescreen by Giancarlo Ferrando and blessed with a trippy score from Ennio Morricone conductor Bruno Nicolai, YOUR VICE IS A CLOSED ROOM AND ONLY I HAVE THE KEY is rife with essential 70s cinema elements: substance abuse, gratuitous sex, infidelity, incest, hippie love communes, dirtbike racing? and homicidal murder, Italian-style. Throw away those grainy, incomplete bootlegs and substandard import DVDs.
