Fairly good - A Black Veil for Lisa review by sb
FILM & REVIEW Ok EuroCop drama - Johnnie Mills plays Bulon a narcotics policeman in Hamburg married to the much younger and vivacious Lisa (Paluzzi) who it’s implied married him in return for avoiding jail time. But he is insanely jealous suspecting her of having affairs which distracts from his work which isn’t going too well. Every time he gets someone to reveal all about the drugs kingpin they end up dead killed by contact killer Max (Hoffman) and he wonders if Lisa has left her past life behind. This time he is sure she has a lover and instead of arresting Max he makes a deal with him to kill Lisa. Max sets out with this intention but begins an affair with Lisa instead leaving Bulon helpless as he loses control of events . Although it’s not a Giallo it does have some of the tropes - Max wears a black coat,hat and gloves prefiguring the standard killer setup although this is more a betrayal movie. Mills does what he can with the role and Hoffman is all handsome charm with good use of the Hamburg locations - 3/5
