Ep1188: Accademia Giallo: Knife of Ice (1972)
Forget hot chocolate, fire places, and hugs--Accademia Giallo is heading into holiday break with a Knife of Ice!
Umberto Lenzi's 1972 thriller stars Carroll Baker as Martha, a mute woman who finds herself embroiled in a series of murders in Spain--which the police believe are being committed by a drug-addled Satanist!
To celebrate our spoilerific year-end panel, we're welcoming back author Troy Howarth, who literally wrote the book on Lenzi! Join us as we bid a chilly (and chilling) farewell to 2025.
We'll also take your questions, comments, and suggestions for next year's show!
