Rosalba Rating

Not one of Franco's better moments, this film was so awful it killed off the Fu Manchu series and made the previous film, KISS AND KILL ( also by Franco ) look like an academy award winner by comparison. Rosalba plays a killer who dresses as a man and has precious few moments on screen. It's offbeat casting but I really can't ofer and congratulations or endorsments.
I'll give Franco a pass for completely wasting her here, as he would go on to showcase her in 99 WOMEN and JUSTINE, and clearly understood and appreciated her vast appeal and unique beauty.

Rosalba rating: 1 out of 10

Rosalba's hot even when dressed in mannish garb... The bowler hat was cute.

Cryin' shame about the lack of skin, though.

Luxuriate in the eclectic...

When she went charging back in the castle, I was sure we were going to have a cat fight between her and Fu's daughter. No such luck. Franco screwed the pooch!
