Nine Guests for a Crime1977
Directed by Ferdinando Baldi
The premise
Nine members of an extremely rich and hateful family have decided to have a reunion on a remote island in the Mediterranean. No sooner than their arrival, old grudges, resentments, and feuds make themselves known, along with allusions to some more macabre events in their past. But when their boats are sabotaged, thus stranding them without any connection to the mainland, it becomes clear that someone is not willing to let old wounds heal, a fact made all the more clear as bodies start to pile up...
Horror Vault's take
A reunion of wealthy, mutually contemptuous family members on a sun-drenched Mediterranean island quickly turns lethal when their only means of escape is destroyed and an unseen killer begins working through the guest list. Old resentments and dark secrets bubble to the surface as trust collapses and alliances shift among the stranded survivors. This late-70s Italian thriller delivers the claustrophobic dread of a classic whodunit laced with giallo sensibility, keeping viewers guessing about motives and murderer alike.
