Cover Girl Killer demonstrates that the sleaze market was as active in 1960 as today. In this grindhouse quickie, some looney tune is bumping off photographer's models. A Hugh Hefner-type girlie mag publisher, anxious that his talent pool not be depleted, sets a trap for the killer. The publisher's top model, a pneumatic blonde, allows herself to be used as bait. There's epidermis aplenty but no outright nudity in Cover Girl Killer; still, the film found its way on the "art house" circuit in the early 1960s.
