Carroll Baker in another European thriller but it's not really a giallo, more a hesity film. This is pretty bad - not just bad, it's also dull, which is even worse, without even a Baker nude scene to liven things up. She does play a double role and has to endure some awful fashions that make her look like Carol Brady.
The plot involves Baker being tormented by a mystery assailant and a missing bag of diamonds. Stephen Boyd (of Ben Hur fame) offers some name recognition as a lawyer friend, while George Hilton plays her racing car driver lover. Baker doesn't give a good performance; actually no one does (there are some hilariously OTT British police). Surely more could have been made of Baker playing identical twins?
It was partly shot in Amsterdam, but it's an ugly looking movie, crummily shot, badly made. The music score isn't bad.
