Shanks (1974)

Shanks for the memories
25 May 2007
I saw "Shanks" in Chicago on it's original release with another William Castle project "Bug". I remember it as being not very good, it had terrible word of mouth and was dumped into limited release. It was at the old Adelipha theater on the North side.

I remember basically agreeing with this.... but one long, long shot of Helena Kalliniotes has lingered in my mind all these years.... She is a very distinct presence, I'm surprised She didn't do more after "Kansas City Bomber" and her memorable cameo in "Five Easy Pieces."

I wish "Shanks" would surfice on DVD so I could take another look. It certainly isn't, or wasn't, the same old thing.
