Viewing Notes
This is an interesting pseudo-Giallo from the late 60s. Does not follow all the standard tropes of the sub-genre but the themes are still there. There are a lot of chickens and some sweet music, but in the end you’re left scratching your head a little. I’ll need to watch this again in the future and see what I make of it upon a second viewing.
