Episode 37: Five Dolls For an August Moon + My Sister in Law

Al joins us once again to discuss Five Dolls For An August Moon (1970), directed by Mario Bava, and My Sister in Law (1976), directed by Lucio Fulci. Our conversation ranges across such topics as aristocratic Italian actors, the advisability of wearing budgie-smugglers at a weekend house party, the many riffs of Agatha Christie's seminal slasher-whodunit, Muppets songs lifted from Mondo films, and of course a deep appreciation of the work of the great Edwige Fenech (including how to say her name properly). We will be announcing a Spoiler Territory section for both films, so if you haven't seen them before you listen, you can nevertheless avoid spoilers for Five Dolls For An August Moon by skipping ahead to the 59:59 mark, and for My Sister in Law by skipping ahead to 1:52:13.
