''Don't Torture a Duckling'' (Italian: ''Non si sevizia un paperino'') is a 1972 Italian giallo film directed by Lucio Fulci. It is significant within Fulci's filmography as it is one of the first in which he began using violent gore effects, something he would continue to do in his later films, most notably ''Zombi 2'', ''The Beyond'' and ''City of the Living Dead''. The soundtrack was composed by Riz Ortolani and features vocals by Ornella Vanoni. == Plot == In the small Southern Italian village of Accendura, three local boys, Bruno, Michele, and Tonino are engaged in mischief. Giuseppe Barra (Vito Passeri) a local simpleton and peeping tom, who is seen spying on two swinging couples, is taunted by the boys. When Bruno goes missing, reporters converge on the town. One of them is Andrea Martelli (Tomas Milian) a sharp-witted journalist from Rome whose insights into the case are acknowledged by the regional police commissioner (Virginio Gazzolo) working with village chief of police Captain Modesti (Ugo D'Alessio). While researching his story Martelli interviews the local priest, Don Alberto. Elsewhere, Captain Modesti and his aide meet with Francesco (George Wilson), an old hermit living in a stone hut who practices black magic and offers charms and potions to the superstitious. He tells police he has passed his knowledge of black magic to his disciple, Magiara, and also shares time with thrill-seeking Patrizia. In the end Don Alberto is revealed to be the killer and is caught trying to throw his little sister off a cliff. In a fistfight with Martelli, Don Alberto loses his footing and falls off the cliff to a gruesome death. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Don't Torture a Duckling」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
