|---|
THE RED QUEEN KILLS 7 TIMES (La Dama rossa uccide sette volte) was written and directed by the Italian filmmaker Emilio Miraglia in 1972.
Kitty, Franziska and Evelyn Wildenbruck are the sole heirs of their wealhy grandfather Tobias Wildenbruck. Kitty and Franziska share a secret : a few months before, Kitty has accidentally killed their sister Evelyn whose corpse is hidden, since then, in the family castle's crypt but, for everybody else, Evelyn is working somewhere in the U.S.A.
Now, Kitty's colleagues at the Springe company are murdered one by one by a mysterious woman wearing a red dress whose description fits Evelyn's. While the police thinks that the murderer is one of the employees of the company, Kitty doesn't know what to think anymore. If Evelyn is dead, who could be this woman and what are her real motives ?
