What're We Watching?

The coats are convinced that they're seeing double in Lucio Fulci's 1969 (haha) giallo: "Perversion Story". We find a classic tale of insurance scamming at the heart of a rather rudimentary plot for a "yellow" that slowly unravels into something worth the wait. A checkmark on the coat's list of giallos they've been eagerly awaiting to watch and you SHOULD too! Or not. It's your life. But it'd be better if you did, loser.

38. A Lizard in a Woman's Skin

The coats are testifying in an open court that they indeed did not dissect living dogs in Lucio Fulci's 1971 giallo: "A Lizard in a Woman's Skin". Fulci's second foray into the giallo genre, that sees him branching into more of what we know and love him for: the gore! (even if there's only a few snippets of it). The gore-maestro's films always feature the hand of the director at work when it comes to style and movement, and "A Lizard.." is no exception. Listen in as the coats dissect one of the most famous films of the subgenre.
