Watch Me When I Kill (1977)
This is my first watch in this year’s Junesploitation extravaganza!
A lot of face action going on in this twisty post-war Italian thriller, lot’s of close ups of actors emoting loudly toward the camera.
Pretty standard thriller with a couple of juicy red herrings to throw you off the trail.
Absolutely loved the taxi driver and main character shooting off in a taxi from the scene of a crime rather than staying and helping the police but then there wouldn’t have been much of a film if they hadn’t.
The Tango during the opening credits!
It wasn’t a straightforward film, especially with some of the subtitling, but it was an OK enough watch especially for a schlock film from the 70s, and those clothes brought back nightmares!
Couldn’t link the film to the title though, there was no ‘Peeping Tom’ vibe at all.
Showed Italy as a bit of a dump, all greys and muted tones, even the clothes were muted.
Another of those abrupt as hell endings which left a lot in the air really.
