Carol Hammond (Florinda Bolkan, Una breve vacanza, The Damned, Investigation of a Citizen Above Suspicion) is a sophisticated politician's daughter who experiences a series of vivid, psychedelic nightmares drenched in depraved sex orgies and LSD. The dreams turns into a nightmare featuring the death of her neighbour, Julia Dürer (Anita Strindberg, The Eroticist). The next day Julia is found brutally murdered in her own apartment.

The investigation, conducted by Inspector Corvin (Stanley Baker, The Guns of Navarrone, Zulu), leads to Carol's arrest, however she is released after a mysterious man confesses to Scotland Yard that he is the murderer. Not convinced of Carol's innocence, Corvin continues to investigate the murder and unearths new disturbing clues... Did Carol really do it or is she being framed? Where do her dreams end and reality begin?

This celebrated thriller from Lucio Fulci (Perversion Story, The Eroticist) is acclaimed as a masterpiece of the Italian giallo thriller genre and its psychedelic Ennio Morricone score ranks among the best of Il Maestro's work.

Leopard in a Woman's Skin (Una lucertola con la pelle di donna, 1971) will be released on UK DVD on 7th June 2010 by Optimum Home Entertainment at the RRP of £19.99. In order to produce the most complete version of the film ever available on DVD, shots have had to be inserted from different sources. In some places only Italian audio is known to exist, in which case we have retained and subtitled the scenes. The restoration has been overseen by acclaimed film writer Marc Morris (The Art of the Nasty).

The film will also be screened at the Sheffield Showroom on 27th May as part of Celluloid Screams, and at the Bradford Pictureville on 4th June as part of the Fantastic Films weekend.
