NIGHT AFTER NIGHT AFTER NIGHT (1968)
I might as well start with this fruity little number. Is Donald Sumpter really the sex maniac that PC Plod is after ...?
A uniquely sleazy film to come from these isles in this period... I can only think of Twisted Nerve as anywhere near as sordid. But TW has Hayley Mills. This doesn't and is all the better for it.
It's got quite a schizoid structure as well ... moments of calm shattered by violence.
Sumpter was never cockier in his portrayal of an archetypal Jack the lad...and certainly 1 of his scenes may still cause the BBFC to loosen their collars in today's climate ... but as that is to remain a fervent dream at the moment.....
HIGHLY Recommended to all lovers of filth/British/needlessly obscure cinema.


More to come ......
