Amuck
Year: 1972 / Original title: Alla ricerca del piacereSilvio Amadio
Her role as Miss Moneypenny in the lamentable James Bond spoof CASINO ROYALE may have set hearts a flutter, but it was for her part in classic Italian shockers like BLACK BELLY OF THE TARANTULA and DON’T TORTURE A DUCKLING that cemented Barbara Bouchet’s status as one of the most libidinous icons of Euro-cult cinema.
Happily, Silvio Amadio’s saucy thriller AMUCK! fits snugly into this giallo-centric category too, and here Bouchet stars as Greta; a nubile young secretary under the recent employment of the cravat-wearing Richard (Farley Granger – ROPE). Partial to the occasional bout of swinging along with his wanton wife Eleanora (Rosalba Neri – SLAUGHTER HOTEL), Richard also seems to harbour a dark secret: the mysterious whereabouts of his missing former assistant, Sally, whom Greta knows very intimately indeed…
With its blend of leeringly-lensed slow motion sex scenes and slick spectacle, AMUCK! is an erotically charged masterclass in murder and deception, brought lovingly to life in high definition thanks to those lovable deviants at 88 Films!
