Italian proto-Giallo movie with acceptable production design and fine cast , it contains intriguing events , tension , suspense , vicious killers and unexpected denouement . It is a so-so thriller with some moving scenes , a straightforward story with lots of murders , several suspicious people , twists and turns . Displaying a great number of red herrings , thrills , plot twists , and suspenseful events . In spite of some flaws and gaps , suspense keeps breathless , thanks to tension and intrigue . Italian version runs 98 mins , including some nude scenes , as the film was hacked by 15 minutes and retitled ¨Naked You Die¨ by American International Pictures to show mainly at drive-ins. The original script titled "Cry Nightmare" was written by Mario Bava , but is was entrusted to director Antonio Margheriti . This plot about murders at a Girls' Boarding House was subsequently remade in 1976 by Alberto de Martino as ¨Strange Shadows in an Empty Room¨. This Seven Virgins for the Devil (Italy) or Sette vergini per il diavolo (Italy) or Le sadique de la treizième heure (France) Naked You Die (United States) or The Young, the Evil and the Savage (World-wide, English title) benefits itself from appearances by gorgeous young starlettes to be followed long careers in the Eurotrash genres , such as : Silvia Dionisio, Eleanora Brown , Lorenza Guerrieri , Paola Natale and Malisa Longo's debut.
It contains an evocative and colorful cinematography by Fausto Zuccoli. Displaying a thrilling and frightening musical score by Bruno Nicolai , Ennio Morricone's usual collaborator. The motion picture was professional but regularly directed by terror expert Antonio Margheritti, though it displays some failures and shortcomings .

Notorious Antonio directed with skill and aplomb from 1956 to his death in 2002 . Antonio was a former university engineering student who began shooting in 1956. He made all kinds of genres , some of them splendidly directed and others mediocre or flops . As he realized wartime movies , such as : ¨The Last Hunter¨, ¨Tornado¨, ¨Codename Wild Geese¨, ¨Der Commander¨ , ¨Command Leopard¨ . Sci-Fi : ¨War of Planets¨, Planet of the Prowl¨ , ¨Criminal of the Galaxy¨ , ¨Yor the Hunter from the future¨ , ¨Treasure Planet¨ . Spaghetti Western : ¨Joko¨, ¨Dynamite Joe¨, ¨The Stranger and the Gunfighter¨, ¨Take a Hard Ride¨ , ¨Ghosts go West¨ , ¨Joe implacable¨, ¨God Said to Cain¨. And Terror : Virgin of Nuremberg , Cannibal Apocalypse , Alien From Deep , ¨Flesh for Dracula¨ , ¨Flesh for Frankenstein¨, among others. Rating 5/10. Mediocre but passable for the enjoyable cast.
