I would add "Dance of the Hell Monkeys," an Italian production from 1963. There were rumors that it was actually a clandestine attempt by the Albanian government to enter the international film industry, in a bit of trans-Adriatic skullduggery. The fact that even the Italian version appeared to be badly dubbed may support this theory, although in most Italian films of the time dialogue was in fact recorded separately, after filming.

Dear Dennis,

Judging from your obvious excellent taste in cinema, I think you might enjoy some of the classic films of the sadly-undervalued auteur Larry Winchester. I've been reviewing some of them over here:

Enjoy.

You got me big-time with "Mallomar." The perfect '69 solo name. Hilarious.
