"....Doesn't anybody care?", 25 January 2000
10/10
Author: squill (squillante@aol.com) from New York City, USA

The apex of 60s exploitation pix, with Sal Mineo, painted into over-exposing pants, as a proto-Travis Bickle: a pornophilic, body-building Times Square (filmed in its seedy heyday!) habitué fixated on disco dj/dancer Juliet Prowse. A smorgasbord of Hollywood taboos, including masturbation, incest, child abuse, transvestism, and lesbianism. Unbelievably wonderful!
