Evil Senses is all about Manuel (Gabriele Lavia, who directed and co-wrote this with Gianfranco Clerici, Vincenzo Mannino and Dardano Sacchetti) is a hitman who has found a list of names that means nothing to him, but that marks him for death by his bosses. He hides out in a brothel that’s run by an old girlfriend named Micol (Mimsy Farmer) and falls in love with one of her employees, Vittoria (Monica Guerritore). He doesn’t realize that they share the same employer and that her husband wants her to get the list and kill him. He tells her that he’s thrown the list away but has memorized it.

Lavia’s co-star is his wife, who he had already directed in Scandalosa Gilda. If this all feels like a vanity project, it’s close. But if I was making my own movie, I’d work with Saccheti and have Fabio Frizzi do the music, so who can fault him? And wow, this was all filmed in English.

By the end, Vittoria falls for Manuel and saves his life, helping him kill the organized crime leaders that they both serve. Then he shoots her, because he’s a loner.

This was also released as Stripped to Die in Italy. I’m frankly shocked at how little Mimsy is in this and I assume that she was looking for another movie after making Body Count while she was in Italy.
