This Movie Is About.
Wiki.
Fatal Frames (Italian: Fotogrammi mortali) is a 1996 Italian giallo film directed by music video director Al Festa. It stars his wife, singer Stefania Stella. The film is about the American music video director Alex Ritt (Rick Gianasi) who is hired to direct the latest Stefania stelle video in Rome. While there, he witnesses a brutal killing. By the time the police arrive, the body has vanished and no traces of blood are found. When Ritt witnesses a second murder with the same circumstances, he tries to discover the truth.
Fatal Frames was conceived by music video director Festa and his wife, the singer Stefania Stella. The two developed the film in the style of 1970s Italian thrillers. During filming, the film ran out of production money leading to filming being halted. During this period, two key actors died: Donald Pleasence and Rossano Brazzi. This led to the script being re-written with David Warbeck to fill in the gaps of these characters. The film received negative reviews on its release.
