7/10
Great gore, slow-moving film.
3 September 2012
The plot of "The Murder Secret" begins with Richard Hamilton(played by Gabriele Tinti)receiving a letter from his long lost and psychotic Aunt Martha inviting him and his family to visit her at her remote countryside villa.Together he and his wife Nora,their older children Georgia and Charles and their younger son Maurice decide to stay at Aunt Martha's villa.Upon their arrival Aunt Martha is nowhere to be found and the Hamilton's are instead received by the outwardly friendly yet decidedly creepy Thomas who claims that he is Aunt Martha's caretaker and that she will join them shortly.Soon series of bloody murders is set in motion..."Don't Be Afraid of Aunt Martha" by Mario Bianchi is an alright slasher/giallo with three extremely bloody murder scenes including chainsaw decapitation of a young boy.The acting is okay and the plot is entertaining.If you liked similarly gore and nudity laden Andrea Bianchi's "Massacre" give this one a chance.7 crazy aunts out of 10.
