So Sweet...So Perverse (1969), an Umberto Lenzi giallo starring Carroll Baker. With delightfully twisted nasty plot twists coming thick and fast. You can't take anybody in this movie at face value. Decadence, betrayal and murder. Great stuff.

#SomethingWild, 1961, starring #CarrollBaker (#Lolita) is ultimately a perverse story with a wtf ending.
It's artistically and technically well done, but it's fundamentally a toxic mess that could have been an interesting psychological drama, instead.
A good thing is there are more #Black people naturally in the background than in most #movies and #tv #shows set in #NewYork today.
Also good to see familiar faces like #EdithStapleton, #DorisRoberts, and #CliftonJames in bit parts.

Station Six-Sahara is a deliciously overheated 1963 British potboiler starring American blonde bombshell Carroll Baker.
Five men at an isolated station in Sahara, they haven't seen a woman for months, then Carroll Baker arrives and as you can imagine things get interesting.
It’s delightfully steamy and sleazy and overcooked. With plenty of simmering eroticism.

I'm loving these #eroticthrillers on Tubi. This one has the queen herself, #MimiRogers. It's also got one of my favorite #giallo stars of the 1960s, #CarrollBaker. Not to mention #TimMatheson and #WilliamForsythe. Good stuff!
