Item description

Box has been cut and mounted in a white, hard plastic clamshell keepcase. Some of the type has been cut off on both the front and back. Remnant of a sticker is on the upper right corner (see photo). Cassette is nice with all labels intact and store branded security labels on both endcaps assuring you of first generation quality. Pre-viewed for quality and played great on my JVC deck. Never released to dvd, beware of license holder, public domain, imports, etc, bootlegs being offered that are second-generation copies. This is the official vhs release. This rare Out Of Print (OOP) film was directed by Ruggero Deodato ('Cannibal Holocaust', 'Cut Run') despite the anglicized name given. He has a small cameo role early in the picture as a Frenchman who takes a spill on his bicycle and drops long loaves of French bread everywhere. Fenominal (real spelling as seen in the onscreen title) is dressed from head to toe in black, like the comic strip 'Phantom' or 'Diabolik'. He laughs, in echo, like the 'Shadow' while foiling a maritime drug operation. His identity is never revealed, giving the viewer absolutely nothing with which to identify. A real mystery man whose alter ego is inferred later on, but can we be sure? It is inferred, if only by his prominence in the story and his butler Alfred, that Fenominal is in fact one Count Guy Norton (Mauro Nicola Parenti, who also produced), a slinky bearded nobleman, not at all athletic-looking, who arranged for the treasures of King Tutankamen to be exhibited in Paris by winning a poker game with the President of Cairo. The Paris location is used with a meeting on the Eiffel Tower. It is here that Count Norton assures a compulsive mustache-stroking Inspector Beauvais that the fabled mask of King Tut is protected by exhibiting an exact copy while keeping the original under lock-and-key. Somehow, an extra copy is made and, again somehow, confidence man Gregory Falkoff (bleached-blonde Gordon Mitchell) steals the original. A meticulous break-in at the Paris museum to steal the Tutankamen artifact is featured. The photography remains bold and colorful with the main titles letterboxed. The mono sound is strong but dates from before Dolby and thus has a persistent tape hiss. After a while you learn to forget it as a righteous grindhouse fan would or you could try some differant audio mode options to minimize.
