Viewing Notes

I haven’t seen this in a really long time, so stands to reason I’d forgotten all but the basic premise. I had no idea Jessica Harper was in this. Her character here feels like a tryout for SUSPIRIA. Gerrit Graham turns in a great performance as Beef too.

My own fault, but I bought the French Region B disc from Carlotta and while there’s an English language option, it comes with French subtitles, which were distracting at times.
