BABA YAGA (1973) – Episode 268 – Decades of Horror 1970s

The Grue-Crew tackle a bizarre, vaguely supernatural comic book adaptation BABA YAGA (1973) based on the works of Guido Crepax featuring his character Valentina (portrayed by Isabelle De Funès). In the story, Baba Yaga (Carroll Baker) is a mysterious witch occupying a creepy presumably abandoned mansion who sets her eyes on Valentina for a secretive agenda she may, or may not, share with the audience. The film is more of an artsy exploration of the source material featuring many of its exploitive aspects. Does it succeed as a horror (adjacent) movie? Does it adapt its source material in a successful manner? Does the Grue-Crew fully comprehend what flying farm animals is actually going on? Only you can decide. Check out what the Grue-Crew discuss and discover about this Seventies oddity. Enjoy! BABA YAGA (1973) Episode 268 – Decades of Horror 1970s Quote: "Good night, dear.
