A Cat In The Brain (1990)
Lucio Fulci’s swansong in the director’s seat, in which he
bizarrely plays himself as he goes mad, unable to tell what is reality
anymore after donkeys years of directing gore and exploitation. To top
off his deteriorating mental state, people are starting to die gruesome
deaths, and Fulci begins to suspect that he is the killer.
Despite this awesome plot summary (and the fact that the BBFC wouldn’t
rate it), this actually is a pretty awful movie. The pacing is
excruciating, Fulci can’t act (sorry meng, RIP) and it includes recycled
footage from some of his earlier films. However there is a smattering of
gorgeous Italian women present so if you like gore and tits and not much
else you might be okay. Otherwise, you might wanna give it a miss. -
