Viewing Notes
Cinematic Void programmed this one for January Giallo at a few theaters. This is a childhood movie that always stayed with me and kinda scared me. Viewing it now it’s pretty obvious from the start who the killer is. Wish there was a way to forget then watch this to see how obvious it is. Maybe it wasn’t that apparent back in 1980.
I appreciate the aesthetic and general filmmaking more than the story. Just a cool looking soft focus sexy yet creepy ass flick with neat locations.
