THE OTHER SIDE OF THE MIRROR (1973)


 Made in 1973 but not released unitl '76, this is sort of a proto-slasher film from Eurotrash legend Jess Franco though not really all that horror-related. It's really more of an overly dramatic tale of a lady(Emma Cohen) with some serious daddy issues. Papa here(Howard Vernon) decides to hang himslef because his daughter is in a shitty relationship. This leads to some murderously bad stabby behavior aand somehow a mirror gets involved in all of this. A bit of a slow one, there are some long musical bits plus I caught a showing of this towards the tail-end of a recent theatrical Franco marathon so I wouldn't rank this too high in the overall Franco pantheon. AKA INSIDE A DARK MIRROR and THE OBSCENE MIRROR(this is supposed to be the more hardcore version which includes Lina Romay!). 

                                 Jess sure does love that jazz!:
