Viewing Notes

Flawed but watchable. Feel like there’s a longer cut than the one on NWI because this feels chopped in places. Probably more fringe giallo but more straight mystery a la Ten Little Indians. Attempts to be titillating are half-baked. Worth viewing for the cast despite being mostly underutilized.
