lucio fulci don not torture a duckling paint an exceptionally unflattering portrait of small town sicily plague by series of brutal murder of young boy . this surprisingly well direct film ( especially in comparison to later fulci gorefests ) be distinguish by overall atmosphere of perversity and nastiness and two truly grotesque scene of brutal violence . the soon to be dead child be depict a casually cruel and bud peep tom while bruno near seduction by the naked patrizia ( barbara bouchet ) really have to be see to be believe . highly recommended especially in pair with my another cult favourite house with the window that laugh ( 1976 ) .
