OLIVIA 1983 (VINEGAR SYNDROME) BLU-RAY

One of the most twisted films I've seen in a while.

Ulli Lommel directed this which stars beautiful Suzanna Love as the title character.

Olivia sees her mother killed during a sexual encounter and this has affected her growing years. Years later she marries a very abusive man and before long is suffering from homicidal urges.

She takes out those urges on men she meets at night. She disguises herself, lures men to bed and then kills them. One day she meets an American businessman named Mike Grant (Robert Walker, Jr.). They are quickly attracted to one another, and this seems to quiet down the homicidal feelings Olivia has been suffering from.

One night her husband follows her and tries to kill Mike, but is thrown from London Bridge and before Mike can recover, Olivia runs off into the night.

Four years later in Arizona Mike runs into a beautiful woman selling realestate and it turns out to be Olivia, and the two start back up where they left off, but Mike is still haunted by the death of Olivia's husband on that fateful night.

There are a few interesting twists and turns in this film such as Olivia's husband who turns out to be alive and he kills Mike. He and Olivia are together again and the homicidal urges kick in again as Olivia actually talks to her dead mother.

The ending is really downbeat, as is the entire film actually. Love playe her role very well and again I have to say, she is beautiful. If you get a chance you might want to check this out.
