Delirium (Le foto di Gioia) - 1987 - Cover Girl Corpse


Work it cover girl. The camera loves you. From head to toe, you own it all. The world is yours. You are irresistible. You are impeccable. You are irreplaceable....



Beauty can either be a blessing or a curse. It can exploit you. It can KILL you. Former model, Gloria, inherited a magazine from her late husband, called Pussycat, and she is as stunning as she is successful. Her models are drop dead gorgeous and know how to sell. And the copies sell out a lot faster once a model gets murdered...

And when a model gets murdered, she becomes a prop for the next photo shoot...


When the photos of the mutilated models reaches Gloria's office, immediately we are made aware, that this is not a threat. It is a message. Eventually Gloria gives into Flora, who buys Pussycat from Gloria hoping it will bring an end to the slayings. But does it? Most of all, who is doing this and why? Is it a former model who got blocked a lucrative opportunity by another model? Is it Flora, who wanted to buy out Gloria? Is it a former lover of Gloria's? Maybe even the lead photographer who may want to take his craft to the next morbid level? Or her paraplegic neighbor Mark who takes a liking to Gloria? God this industry can be so brutal. Passion and politics do their dance in the crazy world of modeling. It is literally a cutthroat business. From pitchforks to multiple bee stings, a department store death to a dead body in the backseat, the maniacal model killer shows no mercy as he lovingly slays these beautiful women only to get back at only one beautiful woman....Gloria.

And when Roberto, the photographer who is a suspect in these brutal slayings, gets hit by a car and dies, the case is considered closed. But it is far from closed as she sees her impotent brother Tony's body floating in the pool. And who is the killer now?


None other than Gloria's impotent brother Tony! His motive was to protect his sister and get closer to her. I mean did he really have a chance with any of the other models he tried to be with? And who is going to love you more than your own brother right?
