Designated Victim

Designated Victim DVD A true high point in 70s Italian thriller cinema, this inspired remake of Hitchcock’s Strangers on a Train from director Maurizio Lucidi is able to push the concept of the original movie into something far more unbearably tense and deliciously twisted. Shot in a mist-wreathed eerily beautiful Venice this near dream-like melding of thriller with baroque giallo overtones has remained until now a criminally hidden psychological gem.

The Designated Victim (La Vittima Designata) hits DVD on July 28th courtesy of the good folks at Shameless Screen Entertainment.
