Matthew D Not as bad as I expected, but still a far cry from say, 'Caliber 9'. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 05/02/21 Full Review Audience Member Below average Italian snoozefest with a mean-spirited splash of psychosexual thrills. Dubbing Joe Dallesandro removes the camp appeal his New York accent normally imparts, so the main attraction Madness offers audiences is Lorraine De Selle in various states of undress. Docked 1/2 a star for its problematic, yet ridiculous romantic moments and a heavily recycled score. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member this otherwise promising italosleaze is fatally undermined by the hopelessly miscast Dallesandro's laughable ineptitude, and not only at acting - he barely demonstrates the kissing skills of a nervous 11-year old, let alone a dangerous sexually-deprived escaped cirminal Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Read all reviews
