trauma (1978)

aka Rings of Fear. Enigma rosso.
"You! But you must be crazy to come here!"
A teenage girl is murdered, and the detective in charge, Gianni Di Salvo (Fabio Testi), starts to suspect three of her friends, who call themselves 'The Inseparables'.
Run of the mill Giallo, that holds its own based on the presence of its lead Fabio Testi.

dance hall racket (1953)

“What, so I killed somebody, that makes me a bad person?
A dance hall is a front for a diamond smuggling racket. The feds get wise to it, but need evidence so send in an undercover cop.
Only of interest to see Lenny Bruce, (as the gang leaders muscle), prove he's no actor, and should have stuck to the comedy. Though there is a theory that this was produced as a satire, and definitely works better if viewed as such.

trauma (1976)

aka Exposé. The House On Straw Hill.
"You've here for me. For my pleasure."
Novelist Paul Martin (Udo Kier) rents a country house, for some seclusion. Moving in with him is his new typist Linda (Linda Hayden), whilst Paul's girlfriend (Fiona Richmond) comes and goes. The peace doesn't last long though, when two lads are shot, after having sex with Linda, and she doesn't mention a thing...
Slight story, that takes some time to get to the point, and spends too much time trying to build on the sexual tension between the trio, at the expense of the thriller element.

the three stooges meet hercules (1962)

"These young Greek things have great curves as well."
Schuyler Davis (Quinn K. Redeker) is working on a time machine, and everyone thinks he's barmy, so his friends, Larry, Curly and Moe decide to take a look at it. The result finds them back in time facing the wrath of Hercules.
Entertaining slapstick comedy, that harks back to the stooges heyday.

the yin and the yang of mr go (1970)

aka The Third Eye. "See straight and think crooked." A young amoral army deserter, Nero Finnegan (Jeff Bridges), is enticed into helping master criminal Yin Yang Go (James Mason) in blackmailing a weapons designer into giving up the blueprints of a new laser system. But the plan to sell the prints to the Russians is interrupted by Buddha who has the power to change a person's nature once every fifty years, and uses this power on Ying Yang...
Written and directed by Burgess Meredith, this is like an warped adult version of Batman meets Austin Powers, only not in a good way.

the guy from harlem (1977)

"Something just doesn't seem to fit." Tough Harlem P.I. Al Conners (Loye Hawkins), now works the mean streets of Florida. He's hired by the CIA to guard visiting African dignitary, Mrs. Ashanti (Patricia Fulton), who is in tow for 24 hours. Having dispensed his unique take on bodyguarding, (by bedding the lady), Al then takes on the case of finding Wanda (Cathy Davis), who has been kidnapped by Big Daddy (Wayne Crawford).
Stilted in all ways, from acting, script and direction. There is nothing going for this little number.

the seducers (1977)

aka Death Game.
"I'm a happily married man."
A happily married man (Seymour Cassel) is home alone when he takes pity on a couple of young women when they knock on his door during a storm. They tell him they are lost, need directions and are soaked, so he invites them in. Jackson and Donna (Sondra Locke & Colleen Camp) flirt with their host and seduce him. The next morning he is surprised that they are still there, and things rapidly turn nasty, as they tell him they are underage and threaten him...
The creepy-crawly, home invasion theme, could have been seriously scary, but is instead turned into something mildly irritating. An opportunity wasted.
