CAT IN THE BRAIN
UN GATTO NEL CERVELLO
aka : NIGHTMARE CONCERT
LUCIO FULCI at his truly warped best with what is in fact a film comprising bits of other FULCI films tacked to the back plot of a horror director cracking up.
I've identified bits of WHEN ALICE BROKE THE MIRROR and GHOSTS OF SODOM but I am sure theres other FULCI gems included.
There is some loss of continuity resultant from switching films and one car scene involves the car changing repeatedly and the back drop moving from ITALY to FLORIDA and back again.
I get the feeling this is somewhat autobiographical and a big FUCK YOU to the censors and the critics. Indeed the film has been banned in the UK and Germany and when you look at the special effects you can see why. Theres one scene where some random bloke is repeatedly run over by a car which is gruesome in a fun way.
Theres some cracking comedy moments between decapitations and disembowlings and unlike most POUNDLAND classics I will watch this again and still enjoy it. Watch out for the corpse blinking as its dragged away - classic.
Watched with Vodka this film is PUNK FUCKING ROCK!
FIVE STARS and a chainsaw.
