if you can make any sense of this bizarre euro close encounters of the third kind/the omen mash up, you deserve a cookie. this movie is full of a lot of things: big names (john huston, sam peckinpah, shelley winters, lance henriksen), big ideas and insane imagery. none of which work together in any way to make anything close to a coherent plot. truly has to be seen to be believed. the scene at a child's birthday party where she opens a present to find a hand gun, then runs excitedly to show her mother and accidently shoots her in the back stuck with me for days...
this movie has something for everyone. they even throw a giallo strangling scene in there! ITALIAN AS FUCK!
