Blu-ray Review – Too Beautiful to Die

Vlcsnap-2021-11-09-23h10m25s205

To help boost box office potential for 1988's "Too Beautiful to Die," the feature was marketed as a sequel to 1985's "Nothing Underneath." While both endeavors explore the world of modeling and all the horrors it contains, "Too Beautiful to Die" isn't a follow-up, offering its own journey into darkness of human behavior. The first film was a Brian De Palma tribute, and the second one becomes more of a Dario Argento experience, with heaping helpings of Alfred Hitchcock tributes added for flavor. It's also more of a giallo, tracking a crisis involving the well-being of professionally pretty people and the black-gloved killer trying to do them all harm with a comically exaggerated weapon.
