Different Dress/What's with the porn?, 5 January 2004
1/10
Author: peter howell (SL80KE81@AOL.COM) from Rochester, New York

Audrey Hepburn wearing two dresses in the same scene and three scenes depicting the making of SNUFF films that have absolutely nothing to do with the rest of the film. NOTHING!!!! A pitiful film made by lazy film makers! In 1979 it was the worst film I'd ever seen and 24 years later nothing has changed.
