FEAST OF FLESH / Cinematográfica Pelimex - 1967

It's Freaky Feast Of Flesh (boobs) Friday with Tabonga, here at The Dungeon!.. We gots a very cool 78 minute flick from Argentina all about a killer that wears a monster mask and prowls the beaches of Argentina at night, looking for young girls to seduce. He injects them with heroin and then plays weird organ music to turn them into a sex slave. Spanish title means "Bloodlust."

Here's a good look at one of the beautiful victims!

Eegah!! sent over a nice little musical sound clip from the night club for our earjoyment, sooooo, you can push the big red 'GO' button located next to the giant hypodermic needle, NOW, Rufus The Gnat!.. Here's a taste of... FEAST OF FLESH!

Here's our creepy masked maniac, playing a weird refrain on his piano in a dark room. You know, practice makes perfect and all that jazz...

Meanwhile, at the night club, this sexy gal does her topless routine to the pleasure of the weenie gallery!

Oh, and, don't forget about this captivated lesbian chick!

Back at the ranch, though, it's time for a few more laughs with a loaded syringe!..

And... HOLY COW, BATMAN!! I mean, like, casting these very wholesome girlies must have been an interesting part of this production. As I hinted earlier, this movie is all about boobs (mainly) and hands, as even shown on the poster!

Break time!!.. Check out this neat-o vintage record player used by the police inspector.

The police find this guy, dead, with a syringe I guess supposed to be in his heart, in the graveyard. Their job is to gather clues from the crime scene... To me, it just looks like teenagers playing a prank on them!

SEE!!!..... Hands on Boobs!

Images in a broken mirror always have a nice visual appeal, we did the same thing in our Dungeon flick, VIRUS MAN, starring our own Greg Goodsell.

Now, it's this dude's turn! Although, I don't think it would be that much fun to grab his boobs!..

In a Scooby-Doo twist ending, our bad guy is shot and killed, only for our hero to discover that he has a second mask on! The second mask is removed and our murderer is revealed... Tune in tomorrow for another wild 'n' weird post from the Dungeon Crew!

OPERAZIONE POKER - Piero Umiliani - "Nice Pair" (1965)

Roger Browne was off my radar at first because he was mostly a 'Sword and Sandal' guy for years, but after watching a couple of his spy guy films like this, I'm starting to really like the guy, and that brings us to tonight's feature, "Operation Poker!" The instrumental genius once again responsible for the swingin' swanky music is the "Mah Na Mah Na" man himself, the Maestro Piero Umiliani! What a phenomenon!

This is pretty interesting, the word operation is seen here four times, with four different spellings! Operation, Operacion, Operazione, and Operatie, but no matter what language you're talking in, Poker is still Poker! The universal way to lose your ass!

Not exactly Tex Ritter's "Downtown Poker  Club!"

So here he is, Roger Browne as secret agent S1-14, aka Glen Foster on the prowl! Don't know why, for some reason on IMDB, they have his name as Glenn Forest.

This is a unique way to get your girl to go with you, knock her out cold! I've watched this a couple of times now, and I'm still not sure why he did it!

The heartbreaking Helga Liné is Diane, Glen Foster's girlfriend! Yabba Dabba Doo!!

Suddenly people like this agent start dying in all kinds of strange ways! There was a trip wire hooked up to the accelerator pedal and I'm not sure he didn't get shot right square in the crotch!

And this woman is always round whenever it happens!! Carla Calò aka Carol Brown as the twisted Russian agent responsible for all the executions!

Then every once in a while when the sub-titles kick in for a few minutes, you get stuff like this, arguably the worst pickup line of all time!

Here's a little scene featuring one of the best gadgets I've seen in a while! When Glen hits the button, the whole ass end of this '56 Chevy ejects, and the would-be assassin is thrown over a cliff to his well deserved death!

There's way too much going on in "Operation Poker" for me to try and attempt to explain much, and it's awfully twisted too. Glen's got his girlfriend Diane, and he's got orders to get friendly with this Austrian Ambassador's daughter Helga! They are both beautiful and to me can look very similar at times, and if that's not bad enuf, Diane's played by Helga Liné, and Helga is played by José Greci! It would have been a whole lot easier if Helga could have been Helga!

Glen gets some good help from his muscleman pal Omar as played by Bob Messenger (Roberto Messina)!

I'm not sure, but this might be the first time I've ever seen somebody in a fight scene put a real piledriver on his opponent! Roberto is pretty tough!

 

"Operation Poker" is supposed to be set in Malaga, London, Vienna, Geneva, Copenhagen, and Casablanca, but I think it was all filmed in Spain and Italy. This looks like North Korea's vision of the future!

 

Omar gets shot in the back, and you think it's curtains for him, but as you can see, he's doing fine!

Glen finally gets to the root of the problem. This is the device that enables his poker playing friend Parker to win all the time, and is also why the Russians, Chinese, and Vietnamese are all at each other's throats!

When this little x-ray camera hidden in a tie clasp is combined with a special pair of contact lenses, the wearer is enabled to see through not only cards, but walls!

Naturally Glen Foster puts them to good use immediately!

The reason that selfies never existed until just a few years ago, was that it was something that was virtually impossible to do with a camera like this!

The bonus feature is you get a free mini-tour of the Tuborg Brewery!

The last laugh is on the pig in the tank that these three are peering in on!

I just had to add this other version of the poster for it's classical use of four aces! "Operation Poker" is a winning hand in a world of mediocre jacks or better, and the jokers are wild! Where's the place to find it? Cult Action, or The Trash Palace, Of Course! Actually, just go ahead and get one from each place, and give one to friend! They'll love you forever!

MASTER OF THE WORLD / American International Pictures - 1961

It's Master Of The World Monday with Tabonga, here at The Dungeon!.. Here's a flick Eegah!! and I saw at the Sierra Theater back in 1961, we thought it was an okay sci-fi adventure, it was based on two Jules Verne novels and starred the great Vincent Price. Problems arose during production due to budgetary restraints, the budget was $500,000.

Eegah!! sent over this sound clip of the theme and more for us to check out, sooooo, you can push the big red 'GO' button there by the old bomb drop, NOW, Ralphie The Tarantula! Here's our audio offering for... MASTER OF THE WORLD

Here's Vinnie as Captain Robur, giving details about his fantastic airship, The Albatross, to a small group of acquaintances who become his imprisoned crew of "air sailors" that includes Henry (THE WEREWOLF OF LONDON) Hull, Charles (HOUSE OF WAX) Bronson and Wally (BEAST FROM HAUNTED CAVE) Campo.

Speaking of The Albatross, this is a pic showing it off as it magnificently travels through the air.

The cook has a job even more important than just cooking... COMEDY RELIEF!!

I'd really like to have a Heightmeter for the Dungeon since I have acute height-tra-phobia!

The mission of The Albatross is to confront warring factions around the world and bomb the crap out of them, and, it does its job in stunning fashion due to a special bomb sight!!

Portrait of the deadly serious humanitarian, Captain Robur...

John and Phillip have displeased Captain Robur and are also fighting over the female love interest, Dorothy. So, the cap drops them down on ropes from the airship and proceeds to give them and the viewers one wild ride! Oops, the rope broke!

Robur goes to the mid-east to try and end some conflicts there!.. Good fucking luck!

It all ends in disaster for Captain Robur and The Albatross! Part 2 was planned but it never happened... Tune in Wednesday for more from the Dungeon Crew!
