'Fanatic' (1965) – Silvio Narazzino.

I used to know this hazel eyed perma-twitchy punker who righteously dug on 'The Adverts', 'Johnny Hallyday and playfully camp 60s horror, and he was always bangin' on about 'Die! Die! My Darling!' aka 'Fanatic' (1967), and you know wot, the weirdly handsome, glue-sniffing grot woz right, mayte! it's a wickedly wayward, wonderfully wrong-headed, frequently feral cat and madhouse melodrama! And the darkly duplicitous, condiment condemning, eerily evangelizing, lipstick-loathing, perversely pious Mrs. Trefoile distressingly reminds me of my own monstrously misguided mutti...which made me a little sad inside! On the vertiginous upside, the fabulously freckled, gracefully gorgeous,resplendently red-headed Stefanie Powers raised the scream queen bar impossibly high with her perfectly imperilled Penelope Pitstop perkiness! Masterfully written by sinister scrivener Richard Matheson, talented director Silvio Narazzino's terrifically tense, theologically twisted, deliciously deviant, horrifically hysterical horror-show is sonically blessed with a heavy-mental humdinger of a score by maestro Wilfred Josephs. Narazzino's scissor-sharp shocker 'Fanatic' is arguably one of Hammer Films more enduring, mischievously macabre midnight movies! A legitimately creepy, outrageously off-beat, riotously entertaining 60s Brit-Camp classic!
