Formule pour un meurtre (1985)

Review by shawnblackman

Formule pour un meurtre

5/10

Hidden Agendas

A slick, atmospheric Italian thriller involving a wealthy young woman who is unable to walk and has some sort of heart condition. The doctor tells her she can die having sex. She trains in wheelchair sports and soon gets married to the coach. The coach has a hidden agenda and really just wants all her money to share with his girlfriend. The wife is also giving half of her fortune to the church which the husband (coach) does not like one bit. He plans to kill her with lots of sex but things don't go as planned.

I wouldn't really call this an Giallo because the killer is revealed after 20 minutes leaving no real mystery. It is in Italian though. This is the same director that did The Antichrist (1974). This one is not as graphic and no goats, but there are some violent deaths. The score was awesome as well but I thought sometimes it was too loud.

Even after you know who the murderer is tension is still created throughout the whole thing. The ending was cool too as you keep thinking that's it... then boom! It was the equivalent of 2 boy Jasons jumping out of the water.
