Don Mimmo - IN OR OUT

You can't Stop Stubborn Italian Neutrinos.

Found on the Rachal Maddow "Week in Geek" blog segment.

"Neutrinos are the hot topic today, so I thought we could all use a refresher on what elementary particles are. In Italian of course, because it's molto interessante that way."
The Gran Sasso, That's where Mussolini once holed up too.

Tre Colonne Sonore Italiane

Nobody, nobody, I tell ya nobody does soundtrack sleaze like the Italians. Because we invented it! We're the best! Capische?

Soundtracks by Piero Umiliani, Carlo Savina and Gianfranco and Gian Piero Reverberi

UFO Robot

Stefania Rotolo's 1979 performance of "UFO Robot" (a 1978 hit in Italy by Actaurus) on RAI's Tilt is a bit like a live-action version of the short-lived Partridge Family 2200 AD cartoon and — possibly — a more accurate depiction of things to come.

La Matriarca 1969

"A sexy widow discovers her late husband had a secret apartment where he cheated on her. Now she decides to used the same apartment to explore her own sexuality."
Here's what I now know: It's a girl who finally figures out that in order for her to enjoy sex, she needs to ride men like horses. Too much S&M for me, but if you can get through the middle third, the beginning and the end of this movie are well worth checking out. Lots of mod cool 60s sets and clothing. Goofy and weird at times. I LIKE IT!

Staring: Catherine Spaak, Jean-Louis Trintignant and Gigi Proietti

Also Known As (AKA): La matriarca Italy (original title) Änka i trosor Sweden

Movie Clip in original Italian with Japanese subtitles. This sounds SO MUCH better than the English dubbed version I saw! The dubbing was good enough, but the quality of the voices made it sillier than it really is. The Italian is the way to go (if you can speak Italian or can get it subtitled in your language).

Great soundtrack by Armando Trovajoli

Galeria of Failed Dance Crazes: Plip Plip!

Dance craze, or spontaneous mass neurological condition? I think they've all been eating leaded paint chips.

Hercules, Samson & Ulysses

Taking a few historical and biblical liberties, these giants of beefcake meet up in this sword and sandal epic. Looks like a Roman HGH convention gone awry.

Martino Brighetti - Dracula Cha-Cha

from the 1959 film "Tempi duri per i vampiri" or "Uncle was a Vampire" starring Christopher Lee.

Bongusto!

Italian pop singer Fred Bongusto has all the over-the-top delivery of a Gene Pitney, and oh my God, I see in his wikibio that he recorded a song called "Spaghetti a Detroit", no more chitchat for now, I am on a mission!! Listen to Hoo-goo-noo until I get back!

"I am like you and I cry.....cry forever....cry FOREVER....but WHY??"
