Viewing Notes

Thought I had seen this back when it was on Prime but didn’t recognize it. Not the standard lurid, darkly lit and shadowy giallo but more an investigative crime mystery. I dug it even if it gets all Keystone Cops during that silly car chase. The final scene in the train tunnel is pretty neat and haven’t seen anything like that.

I’d buy this during the next Arrow sale.
