Blade of the Ripper AKA "The Strange Vice
of Mrs. Wardh" is a 1971 giallo murder
mystery film directed by Sergio Martino.
It is his first entry in the giallo
subgenre. The letter "h" was added to the
name "Ward" when an Italian woman named
Mrs. Ward threatened legal action over
the original title's potentially damaging
her good name, just before the film was
released. The film was also known as Next!
or The Next Victim.

AllMovie wrote, "Sergio Martino's first
entry into Italy's giallo genre delivers
everything this style of thriller requires
and then some", calling it "a skillful
example of how the giallo can be a
head-spinning experience in style over
substance."

STORY:

Newly married to an older man, Julie returns
to Vienna, where a razor wielding slasher is
killing women. Jean, her cruel and sadistic
former lover, immediately contacts her,
certain that only he can satisfy her strange
vice. But she rejects him. She also meets
George, the handsome cousin of her friend
Carol; both are newly rich, thanks to an
uncle's death. Julie's husband Neil is away
frequently, so George pours on the charm.
Meanwhile, it seems that the slasher is now
focused on Julie. Bodies pile up, other
murders are barely avoided, and George invites
her to go away with him. Can it end happily?
