    Seductive and stylish - a Giallo masterpiece!

    I'm a big fan of the Italian thriller, commonly known as 'Giallo', but I've found that truly great ones aren't that common, which makes it all the more sweet when you do find that illusive masterpiece - and that is a term that can definitely be attributed to this film! Amuck isn't about a ruthless, black-gloved murderer or a police investigation; it's a film about mystery and the sexual tension between its protagonists. The film is a lot like the brilliant Sergio Martino film, 'Your Vice is a Locked Door...' so anyone who's seen that will almost know what to expect. While Martino's film is the most polished of the pair; Amadio's is far sexier. The film features the typical labyrinth plot, although it's all kept together nicely and despite lots of interfering emotions; Amuck always flows well. The film follow Greta, a young woman who takes a job as a secretary for a successful writer as his house is the last place her former lover; the beautiful Sally (oh yes) was last seen. While there, she is introduced to the stunning Eleanora and it soon becomes evident that all is not as it seems...

    This film features a number of standout scenes; from the marshland shooting, to the enacting of the writer's book, all the way down to the superb ending - but the scene that this film will be best remembered for is without doubt the seduction scene between the two female leads. Lesbian sex is only good in films if it's done right, otherwise it looks like a silly attempt to sell the movie; so I'm pleased to say that Silvio Amadio's scene is definitely done right. The two leads are stunning in different ways; we've got Barbara Bouchet, the wide-eyed, innocent blonde girl - and Rosalba Neri, the cerebral seductress, and the sequence that sees them pair up is directed with just the right amount of eroticism to ensure that it's electric on screen. The way that the plot plays out otherwise is very relaxed and nicely fits the beautiful Venetian settings in which the film takes place. The score by Teo Usuelli is haunting and sexy in the right places, and what the film lacks in suspense is made up for by intrigue emanating from the sexual tension of the lead characters. Overall, this might not do much for those who like their Giallo's tense and ultra-violent, but if you want a seductive, tightly-wound little flick; Amuck is one the best!

    Not your average thriller!

    A twisted tale of control and seduction involving the lovely Greta (Barbara Bouchet) who is hired by a perverted writer Richard with an even more kinky wife, Rosalba. Greta however has a reason for being there as her friend/former lover Sally who happened to be the previous secretary hired and who has disappeared. On the way to discovering what happened to Sally, Greta has various adventures from being drugged and seduced by the bisexual wife in a wonderfully surreal, slow motion scene to almost getting swallowed up by quicksand whilst being "hunted" in the marshes. Interesting movie to say the least.

    Steamy Seductive Giallo thriller

    'Amuck' is a stylish and erotic Giallo thriller with a simple yet effective storyline that creates some genuinely suspenseful moments and brimming with sexual tension, all of which is bathed in a stunning yet hypnotic dreamlike atmosphere. The pace could have done with a little tightening, but there's enough on display for even the most avid fans of the genre.

    The plot centres around Greta Franklin (Barbara Bouchet) who takes a new job as a secretary to novelist Richard Stuart (Farley Granger) on a secluded island with his wife Eleanora (Rosalba Neri). But Greta's really to investigate the disappearance of her friend who also worked for the couple and soon enough Greta finds herself the target of the couple's erotic desires and quite possibly her life's in danger.

    The movie is a hell of a lot of fun with excellent direction and great writing both by Silvio Amadio who creates a compelling narrative and infuses the flick with fantastic energy especially in the tasteful seductive scenes without coming across as trashy as well as putting in plenty of red herrings and twists and turns to keep the momentum going. The movie isn't perfect by any means as there's a few dull moments here and there and the climax could have been a lot less predictable, but the fantastic cast more than makes up for the movie's short comings.

    The performances are fantastic here with Barbara Bouchet and Rosalba Neri providing engaging performances with excellent chemistry together and totally stealing the show. Farley Granger also provides a solid performance as the male lead, but he's totally overshadowed by the female leads.

    Overall 'Amuck' is a steamy seductive thriller with plenty of style and entertainment and a firm highlight of the Giallo genre.

    Shallow Erotic Thriller

    The secretary Greta Franklin (Barbara Bouchet) travels from London to Venice to work with the prominent writer Richard Stuart (Farley Granger), who lives with his wife Eleanora Stuart (Rosalba Neri) in an island. Greta is replacing his previous secretary Sally Reece (Patrizia Viotti) that is missing. When Police Inspector Antonelli (Nino Segurini) interviews Greta, he learns that she accepted the job to investigate what has happened to Sally, who was her friend. Soon she suspects that Richard has murdered Sally, but she cannot find any evidence to prove her theory to the inspector.

    "Alla ricerca del piacere", a.k.a. "In Search of Pleasure", is a shallow erotic thriller. The erotic scenes are excellent, but the plot and the behavior of the characters are silly and absurd. There are a couple of twists in the story and lots of nudity along the story. My vote is six.

    OK...

    While labeled as a grindhouse movie, there is not that much wrong with "Amuck". For it's time it's decently acted, filmed and edited. It also isn't shy on showing nudity which I leave to you to decide is that good or bad. However, as a thriller, other than it's OK premise and some creepy atmosphere greatly achieved by decent use of music, "Amuck" fails to be either thrilling or entertaining to make it a good movie. Problem is that our heroine is very bland and she is seldom in real danger. All in all, "Amuck" is passable, sure, and it stands out from sloppily made exploitation movies from those times, but other than that, "Amuck" is just something for genre fans. It's far from the worst thing to watch, but it's also far from something you just have to watch before you die. 6.5/10!
