This awesome and incredibly rare Turkish/Italian co-production, starts out as a Euro crime outing and quickly turns into a dark and sleazy House on the Edge of the Park type exploitation affair with the villain Ahmet (Piero Fabiani) taking a blind man, his daughter and niece hostage at their mansion and subjecting them to all kinds of mental, physical and sexual abuse. Turkish legend Tarik Akan plays Commissioner Murat who is out to catch Ahmet - even if it means dispensing with the rule book altogether!
The Girlfriend is a rare 1977 Turkish-Italian crime thriller that pivots from a police procedural into exploitation horror as a sadistic criminal holds a blind man and two women hostage. Starring Turkish legend Tarik Akan as Commissioner Murat hunting the villain Ahmet, this obscure co-production combines Euro crime elements with dark, intense hostage-taking sequences.
