WEIRD WEDNESDAY: The Seducers (1969)
By the loosest of categorizations, we can call this movie a giallo; it’s also an example of just how scummy an Italian exploitation movie can get. Also known as Top Sensation, Sensations and Swinging Young Seductresses, this movie has quite the plot: Mudy (French author Maud de Belleroche in her only movie) is the mother of a shy and […]
