Naked You Die (1968) Directed by Antonio Margheriti, a lite thriller pioneering many of the cliches of the giallo genre. Black-gloved strangler on the loose in exclusive girls' school in an odd Anglo-Italian world. Lime pit on premises. Michael Rennie makes a distinguished but undemanding appearance as the police inspector. Donna joined me for this one, and fell asleep during the extremely slow first quarter, but we had fun playing whodunnit with the blatantly obvious clues and seeing how it all came together in the end. It seemed like it was meant to be a teenage date movie, with little gruesomeness, few real thrills and no naughty bits. Kind of fun in a silly, stupid way, with lots of bright colors and moving shapes. 6/10
