*** This comment may contain spoilers ***
Thrilling is a comedy composed by three separate episodes.
In the first one, a teacher, played by Nino Manfredi, is terrified by his jealous - and possibly murderous - wife. Not bad, although definitely unexceptional. Thankfully, Manfredi - in a somewhat unusual role for him - is always a pleasure to watch.
The second episode is the shortest and the most (intentionally) cartoonish - it feels like a sketch. A desperate businessman (Walter Chiari) is forced by his obnoxious wife to dress like her favourite comic book hero and to break into their house to "spice up" their wedding. The extreme simplicity of the whole thing is redeemed by an amusing performance by Chiari as the clumsy, miserable and spineless husband.
The third episode is the best. The protagonist (Alberto Sordi) pursues through the highway a driver who has damaged his car, and ends up in an isolated hotel. Believing the driver is hiding in the building, he decides to rent a room and to pass there the night, but he ultimately discovers that the hotel owners are a group of killers who murder their guests to rob them... Sordi is hilarious as his typical character, a mediocre, noisy, petty, cowardly buffoon. Croatian starlet Sylva Koscina (very popular in Italy in those days) plays a mysterious guest.
Overall, not great but certainly decent, as each episode is better than average.
7/10
