PLOT SUMMARY
Minor spoilers. Italian filmmaker Luigi Bazzoni (Giornata Nera per l'Ariete) directed this stylish and surrealistic giallo thriller reminiscent of such paranoid classics of the form as Il Profumo della Signora in Nero and Tutti i Colori del Buio. Florinda Bolkan stars as a translator named Alice Cespi, whose life is falling apart due to strange memories from childhood when she was forced to watch a film called "Footprints on the Moon" involving an unethical experiment in leaving astronauts stranded on the moon's surface. Alice has terrible dreams and begins to become addicted to tranquilizers, desperate to shake surreal visions such as being chased across a beach by fully attired astronauts. The drugs and her deteriorating mental condition cause her to miss work and she is eventually fired, whereupon she travels to a dilapidated former tourist area called Garma after receiving a mysterious postcard. There, she runs into a girl named Paula Burton (Nicoletta Elmi from Profondo Rosso), who tells her that she looks exactly like another woman, Nicole, currently staying at the faded resort. Alice then encounters a series of strange people and circumstances, all leading her closer to unlocking the possibly deadly mystery. Shot by award-winning cinematographer Vittorio Storaro (Apocalypse Now), the film -- based on Mario Fenelli's novel Las Huerras -- uses its haunting settings and Alice's disorienting visions to create an air of sustained dread. Peter McEnery co-stars with Ida Galli (aka Evelyn Stewart), Klaus Kinski, and Lila Kedrova.

RIPPER'S NOTES
Too little time has passed since I watched this, so I won't write any proper notes about the film at the time. Perhaps later I will scrape something together, but now I'm far too excited. All I can say that on my list Luigi Bazzoni is very near at the top among the masters (Argento, Bava and Fulci) with his three non-formulaic gialli: Lady of the Lake, The Fifth Cord and Footprints.

This version is uncut, widescreen and pretty good quality print too.

I have the Italian VHS, LE ORME, in the "Demoni e Streghe" collection. The image ratio is the same as above. It's in Italian, of course, but without any foreign subs on the image. So, if somebody is able to put the English dubbing on this version, it could make a nice share. The VHS is in Pal. Interested ?
