Tayloriona Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
Stephan Hammond It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
Billie Morin This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
Lidia Draper Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.
John Seal This Italian crime flick deserves to be better known, and probably would be if its cast included any of the now popular stars of so-called 'Eurotrash' or 'Eurocult' cinema. Alas, all it has is Dana Andrews as a jewelry salesman with some cursed gee-gaws in his possession. Instead of the bankable Edwige Fenech, Janine Reynaud or Delphine Seyrig in the title role, Ursula is played by the unheralded French actress Jeanne Valérie (previously seen to better effect in 1965's Espionage In Lisbon), who spends the film wearing an ill-fitting wig and making little impression. The film benefits from a lush theme song crooned by Alida Chelli and looks nice enough (or perhaps it would be more accurate to say that Something Weird Video's VHS is in reasonably good condition, though it's pan and scanned). Not so much an overlooked gem as a pleasant surprise.
