Review of Knives of the Avenger (1966) by R.john X — 12 Aug 2008
- trust the crazy old lady near the fire gyser who just sleeps on the beach when she is not doling out death fantasies to dethroned viking royalty, those ladies, they speak for the dead!
- eyebrows.
- it helps to have a hut or barn or other place to hide/live in which is totally conspicious to your enemies and everyone looking for you.
- curly curly blonde hair.
- eyebrows.
- flashbacks are the only way to catch up on the story so far, there has been a lot of plundering and butchering, its like some former soviet satellite.
- fistfights are a good way to reconnect.
- when you go revenging, it helps to have an endless supply of trowing knives and daggers and short swords.
- glistening thighs in leather shorts, plucked arched eyebrows, and creepy old guy/young boy bonding is really the whole attraction of these movies, huh?
Bava at his genre pinnacle. This movie drips scenery and sunbright dirt shimmering up under snow white stallions. The cave chase that involves a sleeping enemy is great stuff.
