Review of The Honeymoon Killers (1970) by Greg B — 08 Aug 2012
Perhaps one of the great forgotten independent films. It is Bonnie and Clyde meets In Cold Blood and Warhol. Shirley Stoler who would by the end of the decade gain critical acclaim as the brutal commandant in The Seven Beauties is equally terrifying and pathetic she represents the real Martha Beck perfectly.
Lo Bianco a year before his role as Sal Boca in The French Connection is the sleaziest con artist ever put on film your tv will feel greasy after every shot of him. Originally to be directed by Martin Scorsese it is a good film though don't expect to be particularly entertained its in the same vein of In Cold Blood so you are not exactly watching it for entertainment as you are for an experience.
