SLAP THE MONSTER ON PAGE ONE (1972) Radiance Films Blu-ray Review

 


Not a giallo, not a poliziottesco, but feeling like a mix of both, Radiance Films brings the excellent 1972 Italian political newspaper thriller SLAP THE MONSTER ON PAGE ONE to Blu-ray looking gorgeous, and feeling as timely as ever, as Gian Maria Volonte rules a right-wing newspaper with an iron fist, ginning up controversy around a local murder to take the heat of the wealthy string-puller he wants to keep happy (John Steiner). Every bit as absorbing and thrilling as the genres it's technically not, this one packs a punch and is ripe for discovery via this release.
