Review of Five Dolls for an August Moon (1970) by Bill M — 30 Nov 2008

While I love Bava as much as the next dude, this movie surprised me a bit. It DID entertain me, but not in the way I was expecting. I got more out of the groovy mod aspects of the film than the actual giallo mystery, which I never thought I'd say in a million years.

It just felt slow and diluted to me and I didn't really get hooked into any of the characters, like I normally would in this type of film.

However, I will say that it was still more entertaining than much of what gets put out in Hollywood today.
