Help identifying an old 1960s or 1970s movie
I asked similar thing in the past, and I thought I'd ask again.
It is one of those times when I suddenly remember an old movie I watched in my childhood days, but cannot remember the title. So, I was wondering if any of fellow Abandonians here, who are always helpful with finding the names of unknown old games, can help me with finding the name of this old movie Okay, here goes: it is probably either a 1960s or 1970s movie, or perhaps early 1980s. I watched it in middle 1980s if I remember correctly, not on cinema, but on local television. It is a colored, not black and white movie. The story is about a bunch of people, trapped in a villa in a mountain. It has something to do with fashion show (maybe). Anyway, there is a murderer, and obviously several people end up dead. I remember the murderer pretends to be a sheriff or some sort of a police. He pretends to have climbed the mountain to reach the villa. I do not remember how or why those people seem to be stuck on the mountain without possibility to go down (and yet the murderer can climb the mountain). There is a cable car, probably not working (which may be the cause why these people are trapped), and the climax of the movie seems to be related with this cable car, though I cannot remember the details. The setting is modern day (for that time). One of the main protagonists is a female. One of the victims, a woman, if I remember correctly has a relationship with the murderer (either his wife, his ex-wife, or his girlfriend). That is all I can remember, the rest of the details are fuzzy. Anybody know this movie? Thanks in advance. |

I am not 100% positive, but judging from the comments on that IMDB page, I think it is "She's Dressed to Kill" :thumbs: :thumbs: Thanks a lot, Romano! This is really a great community!
If I may impose on you some more, mayhap you can also identify the other movie and television series I asked in the original thread (linked above)? ---------- Here let me quote myself. For the 1st one, it is a movie: Quote:
redeemed himself in the final battle, and died saving his younger brother (maybe). He has beard, while his younger brother has not. I am not too sure about this, but perhaps the younger brother's hair is rather curly. ---------- The second one is a television series: Quote:
---------- Yeah, I sure do watch a lot of strange movies and television series in my childhood days. Well, that's about it. Hope you or anybody else can help, Romano. Once again, thanks for "She's Dressed to Kill" ---------- EDIT: In case anybody is wondering what this movie from the original thread is: Quote:

Well, if google is to be trusted, there was this 1940 Alfred Hitchcock's movie "Foreign Correspondent" which has "camera with gun attachment".
