Viewing Notes

Holy shit is this seedy! I’m kind of shocked this hasn’t played on The Last Drive-In given it’s combination of Italian giallo and East coast griminess. It features lots of (while not realistic) brutal violence and disfigurement combined with full frontal nudity. There are plenty of 42nd Street scenes featuring a load of sex shops and grindhouse theaters as backdrop too.
