Zoom In: Sex Apartments (1980)



-------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Summary:

Saeko has grown tired of her domestic regime. Leaping at the opportunity to
visit an old flame when her cyclist husband goes out of town.

On her way to her lover's apartment. Saeko is accosted and raped by a gloved madman,
brandishing a sharp implement. Saying nothing of the occurrence, she still reunites with her former beau. Their romance rekindled by a passionate tryst. Easily topping the ordinary, missionary fumblings of her husband.

Throughout their reconcilement the bodies of numerous young girls are found.
Disturbingly close to Saeko's boyfriend's apartment. A deranged killer with an appreciation
for barbequed lady parts. Is lighting the loins of his victims on fire.

As the murders increase, Saeko begins to notice an obvious change in the personality
of her companion. Making her suspect his knowledge of her own defilement,
when a similar sharp tool falls out of his work bag.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Decision:

Ordinary women driven half mad after discovering untapped pleasures.
Seem to be a common theme in these films. And in a primal, visceral way it's easily understandable.

Stylish Italian thriller leanings and general absurdity make for a more then
memorable viewing experience.

That being said, this title is very highly recommended!
