I'd buy it then as i wouldn't know what the hell it was.

Knowing me i'll rewatch it in a couple of years time, it will suddenly click with me and the Radiance / Raro Blu will have just gone OOP (PRESUMING IT GETS A RELEASE)

I rewatched Night of the Devils having not really rated it on previous watches and ended up buying the blu a few weeks later. Haha. It's still on the to-watch pile though.

Strip Nude for your Killer (1975)

Edwige Fenech and Femi Benussi lead the way and please the eye in Andrea Bianchi's extremely sleazy thriller. Packed with naked flesh and strong brutal violence, this features the classic crash helmeted black gloved killer going after the natives of a fashion house once more.

Strip Nude For Your Killer isn't the best of the genre but it is a lot of exploitative sordid fun and highly recommended.

Although it's been a long time since I watched Strip Nude For Your Killer, I recall it having some of the most gratuitous J&B project placement in any giallo

It does. It's unbelievable how much is in it.

French Sex Murders (1972)

Not one of the best examples of the genre but a film i really enjoy.

It stands out for being set in Paris rather than Italy and it's main hero is Robert Sacchi who was a professional Humphrey Bogart lookalike and adds some Chandler style noir to the film, his appearance is literally the spitting image of Bogey.

The film boasts some lively set pieces, some nasty eyeball murders courtesy of Oscar winner Carlo Rambaldi, all topped off with a fine bevy of Euro babes in Rosalba Neri, Evelyn Kraft, Barbara Bouchet and even Anita Ekberg. Best of all is Howard Vernon in a fabulous crazy scientist role in a film that for once has a title that really doesn't lie.
