Review of Manhattan Baby (1982) by Scott J — 09 Jun 2015
Not one of fulci`s best, the over reliance on spaggeti western camera shots and angles border on parody, it is fun to watch how when a simple insert shot or cutaway would suffice fulci instead chooses to create epic camera shots involving tilts with and focus shifts to highlight the slightest thing ie a clock ticking a heart machine beeping, thats part of the fun this slight story should be forgotten,( it seems to be ripping off the poorer exorcist 2 movie) but this loopy camera work and straight faced stupidity has its own unique charms.
