It's him, all right. Only Lionheart would have the temerity to rewrite Shakespeare!

Brannigan (1975)

"Well, if it was up to me, I'd get some men out thumping on the streets, passing out some 'e pluribus unum'. That's what ninety percent of police work is today."

"The murder rate in your country, I'm sure, gives ample testimony to your superior police methods."

Barry Dennen! that at least was a delightful surprise. but yeah not much to recommend this really

Oscar Insanguinato

Benvenuti o bentornati sul nostro blog. Nello scorso articolo abbiamo deciso di tornare all’horror e spostarci negli anni ’70, per parlare di una pellicola che ho sempre apprezzato, Horror Express. La storia di un antropologo che, ritrovato il fossile di un essere mezzo uomo e mezza scimmia, decide di portarlo dalla Manciuria in Europa con l’Espresso Transiberiano. La creatura però è ancora viva…
