I watched a double-bill of Malatesta's Carnival of Blood and The Witch Who Came from the Sea last night. Witch I've had on DVD for years courtesy of Subversive Cinema but it was great to revisit it again in HD. Malatesta I had never seen before but had wanted to for a while after reading some interesting things about it so I was really eager to check it out (the main reason why I cracked open my set last night really). It didn't disappoint, and its wonky madness was comfortably infecting. A good analogy would be if Tobe Hooper were to have dropped acid and made The Funhouse eight years earlier with some money he found in his sock drawer... then it may very well have been as insane, seedy and nightmarishly good as Malatesta was.

Agreed, I really enjoyed Malatesta.
