Our goal was to get to some more gialli this year, so we're starting off with Dario Argento's second film The Cat O' Nine Tails. This one is technically a giallo but has a lot more in common with Italian poliziotteschi than anything else, and interestingly it refrains from dealing in most of the common tropes of the sub-genre. We talk about the somewhat mundane plotting of this murder mystery, the pseudo-science of XYY chromosomes, and Argento's beginnings. We're also drinking Ommegang x Other Half's Neon Gleam double-dry hopped IPA!
