That was a cool new episode and I enjoyed the few added tidbits in the production here and there. Good job! The question time was a lot of fun and the announcement of the upcoming Fulci episode was the icing on the cake. Now I better watch that damn Manhattan Baby! Tragic Ceremony has to wait I'm afraid...
The police inspector at the end was played by Fulvio Mingozzi, the taxi driver from Suspiria. Milo was only briefly seen in the news footage. I noticed that the house where they filmed Irina Demick's scenes was also used in the Sue Lyon giallo Tarot. I have a love-hate relationship with this film. For everything it does right, there's always something wrong to counter it (such as that ending). Nevertheless, Camille Keaton in a curtains-and-candelabra gothic makes this a favourite of mine. I actually kind of liked Sex of the Witch in spite of its badness. I don't know why, probably because of the dubious nature of the whole production as well as the WTFness of the killer. Camille, Luigi Pistilli and Giovanni Petrucci also worked together the following year on "Il gatto di Brooklyn aspirante detective", a very silly haunted house comedy.
@Terence - Good eye, captain. I always appreciate some trivia! It seems so obvious now that you mention Mingozzi. I am notoriously terrible with that stuff. Glad to hear something like Sex of the Witch getting some... like? I hesitate to say love. It definitely has WTF factor and I really dig the opening music.
