death smiles on a murderer (1973)

aka La morte ha sorriso all'assassino. Death Smiled at Murder.
"They killed you and I didn't do anything to stop them."
A disturbed man (Luciano Rossi) mourns the death of his sister (Ewa Aulin). We then see a coach crash, involving the woman which leads to her losing her memory. She is taken in by a wealthy man (Sergio Doria) and his wife (Angela Bo) to convalesce. They both fall in love with her, but the wife is the jealous type. Meanwhile the family Dr (Klaus Kinski) has developed a formula to restore life to dead people...
What starts out as a psychological thriller, morphs into a Poe-esque horror with a convoluted plot involving incest, reanimation of the dead, and revenge that keeps you guessing as to what the hell is going on!
