Although The Devil with Seven Faces (Il Diavolo a sette facce, 1971) frequently finds its way onto lists of giallo or Italian horror films, it's not even close to being horror. There's no gore, & there certainly isn't any devil.
This is a tepid crime thriller with standard & workmanlike murders & shoot-outs. A big diamond is the boring object of everyone's criminal interest. It feebly attempts to insert a couple "twists" in the tail of the tale.
It stars Stephen "Ben Hur's Boyfriend" Boyd as the hunky attorney; Caroll Baker in a double role as Julie & her twin sister Mary; & a host of Italians. Not worth tracking down.
