| ♥♥♥♥♥ | Lewis's Giallo? |
| Well, Lewis will never be confused with Argento that's for sure. There are similarities to the Italian giallo pictures, but this is a Lewis film all the way. A killer's knocking off strippers and a snobby investigator and a journalist are on the case. That's about it. Lewis seems to be trying to outdo the gore of his previous films, and at times he succeeds. But as gory and sadistic as it is, this film is a comedy through and through. The whole thing is tongue in cheek making it easy to laugh with the film rather than at it for being cheap and silly. A good portion of chuckles comes from the investigator, Gentry, with his high falootin', arrogant, insulting and sarcastic attitude. The guy is almost like a cartoon character, and certainly wouldn't be able to go about like he does in real life without getting his teeth knocked out. His sarcastic, low key response to the killer's demise is hilarious...so is the killer's demise itself come to think of it. I also didn't realize back in 72, some people referred to their homes as "cribs" like they do today. Learn something new everyday, huh? Though comedic, I couldn't recommend it to just anyone, coz the violence could certainly be off putting, even for some horror fans. But anyone reading a Herschell Gordon Lewis movie review knows what they're getting into, so enjoy. | |
