Director: Sergio Martino Writers: Sergio Martino, Ernesto Gastaldi; Lewis E. Ciannelli (dialogue: English version) (uncredited) Cast Suzy Kendall as Jane Tina Aumont as Dani (Daniela) Luc Merenda as Roberto John Richardson as Franz Roberto Bisacco as Stefano Vanzi Ernesto Colli as Gianni Tomasso, the street vendor Angela Covello as Katia Carla Brait as Ursula Conchita Airoldi as Carol Peterson Patrizia Adiutori as Flo (Florence) Heineken Luciano Bartoli as Peter Gianni Greco as George Luciano De Ambrosis as Inspector Martino Carlo Alighiero as Uncle Nino Jeff sees several giallo tropes present in Torso and thinks the first hour seemed a bit pedestrian. During the last half-hour, however, the tension really ramped up. Though not a big giallo fan in general, Chad also thinks the first hour is a tough slog, but the third act more than makes up for it. The trailer for Torso is one of Bill’s favorites and he agrees the film’s tone flips about an hour into it. He also gives it credit for being pretty stylistic, especially for the time in which it is released. Doc, however, found himself rather surprised that he likes Torso as much as he does, citing its brutality, the switch in the main character, and the abundance of suspects as reasons why. The Decades of Horror 1970s Grue-Crew appreciate Torso, some more than others, but they all agree it is worth a watch, especially if you’re a fan of giallo films. As of this writing, Torso is available to stream from Shudder and on physical media as a Special Edition Blu-ray from Arrow Video.
