**_Swimming Pool in Rome_** A young composer (Andrea Occhipinti) gets the opportunity to score an Italian horror film and so stays at a nice villa to do his work, but it’s hindered by visiting females and strange goings-on, including… murder by a utility knife.

Well that was one unexpected twist. Though the slow pace made it almost not worth watching. The effects were great but the story could've been shortened I feel but hey, this is a giallo movie after all. This movie will be good for those really into this style of films. I do enjoy the movie though. Just won't be watching it again anytime soon.
