Short Night Of Glass Dolls
- 96:47
synopsis
The corpse of reporter Gregory Moore (Jean Sorel of LIZARD IN A WOMAN'S SKIN) is found in a Prague plaza and brought to the local morgue. But Moore is actually alive, trapped inside his dead body and desperately recalling how the mysterious disappearance of his beautiful girlfriend (Barbara Bach of THE SPY WHO LOVED ME) led to a terrifying conspiracy of depravity. Can a reporter with no visible signs of life solve this perverse puzzle before he meets his ultimate deadline? Ingrid Thulin (SALON KITTY, THE DAMNED) and Mario Adorf (THE BIRD WITH THE CRYSTAL PLUMAGE) co-star in this unusual and startling giallo (also known as PARALYZED and MALASTRANA) that marked the debut of writer/director Aldo Lado (NIGHT TRAIN MURDERS, WHO SAW HER DIE?) and features a superb score by the legendary Ennio Morricone (THE STENDHAL SYNDROME).
