Second-rate 'gialli' set mainly in London and Scotland, 14 July 2009
3/10
Author: wlgn5 from London, England

Death walks very slowly in high heels in this badly subtitled ("Have you got something on your head, Inspector?" for "What's on your mind..." etc)'gialli' which makes the odd decision to use heavily Italian-looking actors to play English characters. The music, and the on-location settings, are the most interesting things. Otherwise, this is a souped-up Agatha Christie-style whodunit with stolen jewels, the usual red herrings, a not-very-smart Inspector Plod with an even less smart PC Plod, and a supposedly sexy leading lady who blacks up for one of her stripteases. There is no sense of pacing or directorial flair. I thought it would never end. Plenty of bright red ketchup, though. Nice ice, too (if you make it that far). For die-hard 'gialli' fans only.
