La Maschera (1988)

Synopsis
Released in Italy as La Maschera, The Mask stars Michael Maloney as a debauched nobleman. Maloney offers himself to a beautiful woman, but she is repelled by his advances. He dons a mark and tries again, and this time is more successful. But the mask cannot conceal the evil in his soul. The Mask received plenty of video-store attention in the 1990s thanks to the latter-day fame of leading lady Helena Bonham Carter. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
