Viewing Notes

More Bava bc it’s Bava month. Dig this a lot more this time around but still s little flat in execution. Like the style and framing / camera work. Wish the story came together better. That said I would definitely watch this again. The style goes a long way here along with this cast (forget that Edwige Fenech was in this).

Definitely should’ve screened at Film Center for the Baroque Beauties event.
