April 26: Oh Giorgio! — Pick a movie with a Giorgio Moroder score. Here’s a list to get you started.

Also known as Cyber Eden, this movie is wild.

Gloria Ruckhauser (Carroll Baker) has enabled scientists to reverse the aging process. However, they have done their job too well, as all the old people are becoming children. And also — all of the scientists are little kids.

The budget for this movie had to be insane or maybe I just think Christopher Lee should cost more money.

Giorgio Moroder doing the music, Luciano Tovoli shooting, Pietro Scalia editing and a whole vault of cash and this movie, which gets into AI and virtual reality years before that was a thing…it’s just weird.

It’s also the last acting role outside of a TV mini-series for Adriano Celentano. IMDB says that he was “one of the most important singers of Italian pop music, but he’s also been a creator of a comic genre in movies, with his characteristic way of walking and his facial expressions. For the most part, his films were commercially successful, in fact in the 70s and part of the 80s, he was king of the Italian box office in low budget movies.”

This TCM write-up tries to explain the movie: “Special effects comedy about seven brilliant children, hidden away in a secluded laboratory where they are perfecting an anti-aging drug. To help them relax, a lovable “idiot” is engaged to teach them about “lunacy”, but the results are too much for one of the young geniuses who creates a fantasy city.”

It’s like Toys but even harder to understand.

This proves that I will watch anything with Carroll Baker in it.
