RINGS OF FEAR

Enigma rosso

1978 IT HMDB
August 19, 1978

Angela Russo, a sixteen-year-old girl, is found dead in a river, having been fatally violated with a large blunt instrument. Inspector Di Salvo is assigned to the case and focuses his investigations on St. Theresa's, the exclusive school where Angela boarded. Three of the murdered girl's classmates, Franca, Paola and Virginia (who call themselves "The Inseparables"), receive threatening poems from an individual using the name "Nemesis." Bizarre "accidents" start to befall the girls: Franca is injured when someone causes her horse to bolt and Virginia nearly breaks her neck on marbles left at the top of a staircase. But Di Salvo is determined to find the killer, even if it means using unorthodox methods. He is aided by Angela Russo's little sister Emily, whose helpful clues lead to a boutique owned by a dubious character and a vice ring where "rich influential men pay well for teenage favours..."

The Verdict

A commissioner investigates a series of murders all linked to the death of a sixteen-year-old girl who attended an exclusive girls' college. The girl seemed very close to three of her peers, but the investigations also reveal as suspects a German/English teacher and a clothing store owner.

The girl seemed very close to three of her peers, but the investigations also reveal as suspects a German/English teacher and a clothing store owner. Mystery/thriller that is quite reminiscent of "What Have You Done to Solange?" although perhaps a bit weak on the plot side. There are indeed some inconsistencies, especially in the way the commissioner conducts the investigation, really incomprehensible, but overall the morbid atmosphere and some nice ideas definitely save the film.
