Michael Soavi directs Barbara Cupisti, David Brandon and Giovanni Lombardo Radice in this slasher where a killer kills a bitchy theatre troupe wearing a massive owl mask.

Self consciously sleazy, arty and catty. This is as close as euro trash slashers ever get to beauty. No whodunnit but some dance numbers. The third act tableaux where the killer arranges his bodies and sits down to relax with a cat purring on his lap and feathers blowing everywhere is one of the most dreamlike moments in Eighties cinema.
