Torso is a 1973 Italian slasher film.
There is a killer on the loose who is murdering young college girls and there is no shortage of suspects. To escape the killer four coeds head to a country villa for a vacation, but the maniac has his eye on them, as one in particular suspects his identity. The killer, hides behind an old ski mask and strangles his victims with a florid scarf before dismembering their bodies, is haunted by some childhood memory regarding a porcelain doll and a traumatic accident. The killer straddles two now iconic slasher personas, that of Norman Bates-ish psychos, and that of the hooded killers of Friday the 13th and the like.
