how can you not love a film where the invitation to the south african premiere be print on barf bag . especially when it have a pitch as insane a the manitou and which see susan strasberg grow the foetus of a 400 year old reincarnate native american medicine man in her neck and call on tony curtis psychic for help . of course and curtis be a phony he seek help himself and first from stella stevens gypsy and then and decide to fight fire with fire and michael ansara medicine man . ansara give a surprisingly good performance consider the material and but even his indian magic isn not enough to fend off an evil felix silla from summon the devil himself and who can only be defeat by turn on every computer in the hospital at the same time and susan strasberg get her tit out in a vaguely new age meet 2001 finale . despite the synopsis and unintentional laugh be in short supply and although a sequence where one of curtis elderly customer be possessed and float down the hallway and throw herself down the stair be a mini masterclass in ineptitude a it fluctuate between fail attempt at humour and laughable attempt at drama . still and any film where the co writer be blow up on screen and where a frozen nurse be accidentally decapitate isn not entirely without some merit .
