This is one giallo film worth discovering, such as interesting little curio 🤩 and I’m not kidding with the main theme tune, I was humming it for weeks!
I had the absolute pleasure to work on this release for Celluloid Dreams, contributing a video essay about the pure mystery of this near-lost giallo gem. Make sure not to miss out, it's incredibly worth seeking out (and has THE most memorable musical ditty!)
