I picked up this Dutch disc for review (cheaply) so I could view the Caminnecci cut for the English-speaking market. Thnx for visiting and commenting.

An excellent genre work, both as an introduction and as a rich analysis of five important genre directors. Always appreciate your stopping by, Neil, and thnx again.Hans A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11328243469224993459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4093327579257195527.post-44849367628031369162009-11-24T18:50:13.453-06:002009-11-24T18:50:13.453-06:00One of Franco's best, this.
