The Suspicious Death of a Minor (1975) aka Morte sospetta di una minorenne, directed by Sergio Martino, Arrow remaster, encoded in 10 bit HEVC with AAC sound, including original Italian theatrical mono, English mono dub, commentary track, and English subtitles.
IMDb : https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0073406/
Video encoded in two-pass 11.0 Mbps x265 10bit with the veryslow preset for archive quality image. Audio encoded separately with Apple AAC for the highest-quality AAC sound available. Subtitles converted to VobSub and repositioned.
Note : In the mid-70s, the first wave of giallo hyperpopularity gave way to the poliziottesci, gritty crime thrillers inspired by stuff like Dirty Harry. Sergio Martino seems unwilling to totally let go of his sexy giallo style, though, so we get hybrid fare like this, with an obsessive cop chasing the truth after a young girl he met is found murdered. And it's not half bad, with some nice action set pieces, always very good looking cinematography, and solid performances, although it doesn't really stand out that much.
Undercover cop Paolo meets an attractive young girl, but he's unaware she's secretly an underage prostitute (what his intentions with her were, given that she's underage, is left as an exercise for the viewer). When she turns up dead, he wants to investigate, but both an assassin and powerful, connected people running the prostitution ring very much want him out of their hair.
This is a quite nice remaster, subtle grain, decent color and contrast, sharp enough, and the two mono tracks are fine. Commentary by Troy Howarth as usual interesting and informative.

HeVK torrents always have lots of keywords. Try searching for “ hevk giallo” for more mysterious murders in Italian, “ hevk crime” for more films about blantant law breaking, or “ hevk italian” for more from the country where it was apparently incredibly dangerous to be an attractive and sexually active young woman in the 70s.
