Dennis Christophet ("Breaking Away") plays Eric, a shy nerd who's obsessed with old movies. After years of being ignored and mistreated, he snaps and goes on a killing spree, using his favorite film characters as inspiration for his murders.
This cult classic psychological horror flick has been on my list to check out for years n' years. I'm glad I finally got around to it, because it's a good one!

Leonard Part 6
Wicked
Manos: The Hands of Fate
Bride of the Monster
The Conqueror
Dressed to Kill
Exorcist II: The Heretic
The Exorcist: Believer
Halloween Ends
I Spit on Your Grave (1978)
Rollerball (2002)
Heaven's Gate
Superman IV: The Quest for Peace
Star Wars: Episode IX – The Rise of Skywalker
Dad told me about THE CONQUEROR when I was a kid and it made me go 😳.
I remember my folks being invited to the premiere of HEAVEN'S GATE at our local cinema in 1981. Both of them said they were confused by it and Dad said it looked like someone had gone through the print with a scissors, just cutting anything out anywhere which is exactly what happened when your movie's original running time was 325 minutes 😳😳
DRESSED TO KILL and EXORCIST 2 had censorship issues in South Africa and all three EXORCIST films were banned.
I PTOOEY ON YOUR GRAVE was also banned; LEONARD PART 6 was advertised here, they made posters etc and then forgot to release it 😳😉
I liked the original ROLLERBALL but the remake sucked. The director went to jail Iater!😳
MANOS was funny with the MST3K treatment but a bit unnerving without.

Last post by M.10rda - January 08, 2026, 09:17:46 PMSENZA PIETA aka WITHOUT PITY (1948):
Here's one more confession for which I may likely need to apologize - I'm no fan of Fellini, either! Nevertheless I wandered into a viewing of this post-war/neo-realist flick and discovered it was co-written and assistant directed by Fellini. The other writer and chief director is named Alberto Lattuada... yeah, who? He had a long career and made a lot more films, and I've heard of none of them. But, for what it's worth, Lattuada got me to watch another (quasi-)Fellini film... and I liked it!
The US army is still occupying Italy after the defeat of Mussolini, but (huh!) crime is rampant and honest, helpless poor folks are seemingly at the mercy of the ruthless and corrupt. (Funny how that seems to happen during American occupations...
) Amidst this mess, an increasingly desperate young peasant woman saves the life of a black American GI. They form a friendship, and...
Well, this is 40s (neo-)realism, so you can guess there is serious conflict. Quite refreshingly, though, most of the drama in SENZA PIETA doesn't arise from racial tension or around the possibility of an interracial romance. As has been widely reported, A-A soldiers in Europe during WW2 encountered much less hostility and more casual acceptance than they were accustomed to stateside. Still, geography doesn't solve all the problems of these protagonists: money and class will always be the great, er, "equalizers".
A little slow at times, yet well-acted and potent. Giulietta Masina (Mrs. Fellini) has a large supporting role if you're into that kind of thing.
3.5/5
I admit that my attention was initially grabbed by the poster, which looks like an extremely early precedent of blaxploitation:

The film isn't really exploitative at all - it's highly compassionate. He does get ahold of that cool submachine gun for a hot second, though.
