For many years, with regard to their film-watching, Ciara and Conor have been theming their months. On Friday Film Showcased (FFS to friends, and sometimes enemies), they look back on themes gone by.
In the Quatro episode of FFS, Ciara and Conor discuss the genre of giallo, including the films in the title of this episode and Stagefright Aquarius, Blood and Black Lace, Pieces, Lizard in a Woman’s Skin and Bird With the Crystal Plumage.
In the interests of listeners who don’t enjoy listening to screaming, we have released a version where screams, chainsaws and eyeball popping replaced with the soothing sound of bunny rabbits! The uncensored version is also available, but you can listen to the Screamless Bunny Edition here:
