Enjoyable Thriller

A wealthy man keeps finding his wives dead under mysterious circumstances and, after standing trial and getting off, a mysterious woman enters his life and strange things start to happen.For a giallo, The Fourth Victim is low on violence and sleaze, but the performances are better than average and the script won't make you cringe as much as many similar films. There are enough twists and turns to keep you interested without having to slice up bodies every 10 minutes. Some of the twists are silly, but silliness is to be expected with this sort of Italian thriller.

An above average addition to the giallo genre

I recently watched the Italian giallo Fourth Victim (1971) on Tubi. The storyline follows a man whose third wife mysteriously dies...much like the two wives before her. The husband inherited large sums of money in each case and is the primary suspect. As the police poke around the circumstances a new blond arrives at the husbands doorstep with her own motives, but what are they? Could she want to be the fourth victim and why?This movie is directed by Eugenio Martín (Horror Express) and stars Carroll Baker (Kindergarten Cop), Michael Craig (I Promised to Pay), Enzo Garinei (Dr. Clown) and Marina Malfatti (All the Colors of the Dark).This picture has a tremendously unique storyline with a nice mix of murder mystery and slasher elements. The kills only take place at the very beginning and very end, and both scenes are shot in classic giallo fashion. The "who done it" elements are solid and have a classic 70s feel to them. Michael Craig delivers an excellent performance as a strong, rigid character who could care less what the police or society thinks of him and is just doing his best to get through the circumstances, no matter who is poking into his affairs. Carroll Baker is gorgeous and delivers her conniving role to perfection. The ending is rewarding with a classic giallo twist.Overall, this is an above average addition to the giallo genre that I would score a 5.5-6/10 and recommend seeing once.
