Episode 19: Perversion Story

Due signori in giallo

Dave and Jon talk Hitchcock influence, movie strip clubs, and somewhat bizarrely the TV career of Emily Booth as they break down Lucio Fulci's swinging '69 giallo Perversion Story/One on Top of The Other/Una sull'altra.

CW: Gendered violence, gaslighting, the death penalty, exhumation.
