Ep923: Accademia Giallo: SO SWEET...SO PERVERSE (1969)
Accademia Giallo returns with a lesson that's So Sweet…So Perverse!
Umberto Lenzi's 1969 thriller centers on a bored, married Parisian socialite who is pulled into a web of lust and deception after he seemingly rescues a woman from her abusive boyfriend! In this lively round table discussion, Ian, AC, Kitley, and Bryan peel back several layers of deceptively simple storytelling to reveal a twisted scheme in which nothing (and we mean nothing) is as it seems!
Plus! Stick around 'til the very end to find out what next month's very special Halloween episode will be! You're guaranteed to be shocked and sickened!
