Great flick in any version 100% eye candy

For me it's a boring, stupid movie.

Illogical, surreal, exploitative, tacky, wonderful.

I've only seen the Italian edit and I loved it (which is weird considering I hated Polselli's other film, REINCARNATION OF ISABELLE). I've seen quite a few gialli and I think this one ranks among the very best. Maybe I should watch the other edits since I keep hearing how completely different they are but I'm afraid if I hate them my opinion of this will change.

Top 5 gialli
1. Don't Torture a Duckling
2. Delirium (Italian version)
3. What Have They Done to Your Daughters?
4. The Killer Must Kill Again
5. Pyjama Girl Case (weird stuff here)

Runners-up: TENEBRE and THE STRANGE VICE OF MRS. WARDH

I just watched this and holy god sister was it a freaking crazy experience. I'm heavily looking forward to Don't Torture a Duckling.

D.T.A.D. is Fulci's masterpiece. Also check out Beatrice Cenci and The New York Ripper; in my opinion, those 3 are his best films. As for Delirio Caldo, i need to check out the director's other works... and i *DEFINITELY* need to check out anything else with Rita Calderoni! =D Her sexuality just oozes all over the screen. I love her.
