Today, The Kicking the Seat Podcast rings the bell on another installment of "Accademia Giallo"! Today, Ian looks at Sergio Martino's 1971 thriller, The Strange Vice of Mrs. Wardh with Aaron Christensen of Horror 101 with Dr. A.C. and Bryan Martinez of the Facebook video series The Giallo Room!
When a black-clad killer (of course) stalks and slashes through the world of a diplomat's wife, suspicions mount as quickly as the bodies. Edwige Fenech stars as the titular Mrs. Wardh, whose shady past and penchant for indulging in dark fantasies draws the audience into one of the most tangled webs of deceit any genre has to offer. This spoilerific episode explores how Strange Vice factors into the wider world of giallo, and takes some fun detours into the film's seedier corners.
Also, Ian appeared on The Spoiler Room Podcast again last week to discuss 1996's The Crucible! Check out the latest episode of Mark "The Movie Man" Krawczyk's year-long project, "52 Degrees K.B.", in which he reviews fifty-two films with various connections--all winding their way back to Kevin Bacon!
