Massage Parlor Murders! (1973)


Cinamio
Directed by Chester Fox and Alex Stevens
My rating: 2 stars out of 4
IMDb
(Blu-ray, Vinegar Syndrome)

Massage parlor girls are being murdered in NYC. Two cops investigate, but one of the victims turns out to be the "regular" girl of one of them, and the other falls in love with her roommate. Their romance takes up much of the running time: they walk around Times Square and 42nd Street, providing a glimpse of all the old marquees and sleazy adult book stores. They eventually figure out that the murders are following the pattern of the Seven Deadly Sins, just like in the more famous 1995 movie. This one, however, rarely rises above its amateur production status, thought there is a good car chase and some attempts at acting.
