Hitting a bum note...

The Bird with the Crystal Plumage - 1970

UK Release
Aka:
L'uccello dalle piume di cristallo

Certain names in life just demand respect - no questions asked, they get it. Argento is one of them. This sleeve is not. Complete pile of arse , except the arse in question looks more like, to put it crudely, a ball sack. The master of horror's work deserves more respect than a dodgy arse with a fist coming out of the top.

Wrong wrong wrong wrong!

(Insert anal fisting joke here)

IMDb / DVD

Hey there Amy,
This tape was actually the very first Argento film I bought! It's been 20 yrs and my memory is faint here but I seem to remember buying it second hand at Forbidden Planet in London. I got Bava's SHOCK at the same time and it's from the same company with an almost identical cover. xD. Still got 'em both btw.
