Buio omega
Joe D'amato takes on Psycho with this outrageously twisted little flick where a grief stricken young fella digs up the love of his life and uses his skills with taxidermy to keep her fresh. It kicks off a necrophilia fetish that means he starts bringing girls home to screw by proxy of his dead missus.This also leads into him being blackmailed into a pseudo-incestuous relationship with his guardian who raised him after his parents died. Overall then its pretty messed up.
Weirdly its also one of Joe D'amato better films. As grim as it is its all well orchestrated, the gore is good and the score from Goblin is terrific. So while its one of those films you hope the kids don't find and watch its worth having in your collection if you dig Italian sleaze.
