Three movies about the Monster of Florence have been made or are in production. They range from a study of the murders to a pornographic potboiler. One film was being made last summer when the latest victims were killed. The movie crew went to the site of the crime and filmed new scenes to update the story. Officials fear that the movies will encourage copycat murders at a time when the police have their hands full dealing with the original killer. --By John Moody. Reported by Walter Galling/Florence
