What Kind Of Dressing Do You Use In Cole Slaw?

Giallo Special - Review of "The Secret of the Magic Circle"

Wow ..... what a nonsense! There are actually movies that even a diehard like me Trashfilmfan really still amaze .... Even the story of this smash hit (original title: "Eroticofollia") is already completely gaga: The wealthy playboy Peter Cray (Spaghetti Western veteran Anthony Steffen) seems to do nothing all day other than taking drugs, throwing parties and a woman after the other flat down.

fits the stupid expression of diverse actors for the film quite well ;-)
meet him one night in his dreams, strange creatures (turn up naked, one of which jumps around crazy), which apparently take possession of him. Instead let the feet of the drugs, he does once more happy, until he meets a woman who claims that he would kill her.

This is definitely not a magic circle!
Later he brings it against his will to actually appear, but her body has disappeared shortly after. Instead, dive soon a blackmailer, a chase him Commissioner and one with him in the chest hümpfende doctor. There are also strange luminous phenomena, living dead, dreams of magical rituals, and telekinesis.

I just do not know is what the tasteless in this picture!
latest after the first third of the film is already something of Balla Balla, that one's breath stock. Funny enough, then the script gets tangled so blatant that it is trash movie lovers a real treat - just incredible, now would probably invest (unfortunately) not a single producer and a penny in such a cinematic disaster.

Hach, this seventies .... Free love and free drugs abound addition
is that not only the title (well, he was originally called "Blood Magic") powerful next to the skin (there is no single magic circle in the whole movie), the movie has hardly anything together with a Giallo - only the dream sequences are reminiscent of Giallos with fantastic impact as "Colors of the Night" and "Malastrana", that was it but ...
Conclusion: Giallo? Hardly ... Trash? Absolutely!

My favorite: The telekinetic ashtray
PS: Sorry, no trailer found :-(
