The film has a ton of twists and turns, but the basic plot has Baker star as a race car driver named Helen who is invited by her ex-husbands new wife to stay at their place for a while as she tries to get her life together.
Both Helen and Constance (Anna Proclemer) form a bond and plan to kill Maurice (Jean Sorel). Maurice is, of course, Constances' husband, but before things get too far Maurice starts falling for Helen again.
Constance is killed in a bizarre accident on a boat, or so everyone thinks, except her daughter Susan (Marina Coffa) who suspects it was murder. Here is where it gets really twisted.
Helen catches Maurice fooling around with Susan and it becomes clear that they are trying to frame her for the murder of Constance so they can be together.
Yes, this is one twisted picture indeed. It has an ending which will shock you...maybe, but it will not leave your mind soon.
Carroll Baker was almost 40 when she made this, but her beauty outshines everyone else. All I can say is this is a standout film and one of the best Giallo movies I have ever seen. Check it out.
