Audio/visual unsynchronized: Guru plays the organ with both hands. The organ continues to play a two-handed melody as he lifts one hand off the keys. Then he lifts the other hand and it still plays.

Guru the Mad Monk (1970)
BOMB (out of 4)
Another film from the infamous Andy Milligan. Guru is the monk at a local prison where prisoners are beaten, executed and so on. Blah, blah, blah. The entire film runs 56-minutes and I was wanting to hit the FF button each and every single minute. The film is horribly made with horrible acting, horrible directing and everything else is equally horrible. Milligan has the reputation of being one of the worst directors ever and I'd certainly have to agree with that. The movies has no pacing and really doesn't have anything going for it.
