AMG DIRTY DOZEN 10/04/18: Gun-Toting Beasts, Malformed Men and Scarecrows, Too!

The first installment of AMG Dirty Dozen for October offers you a suitably garish grab-bag of wild cinema from around the world.  You get a couple of hard-hitting poliziotteschi flicks from Italy, some martial arts action from Shaw Brothers studio in Hong Kong and an unforgettably surreal and perverse monster flick from Japan.  Elsewhere, you get a Blake Edwards comic quickie from the '80s, a quirky experimental film refashioned into a Crown International drive-in flick and a post-apocalyptic popcorn muncher aimed at teens.Note: since these All Movie Guide reviews were published, Schlockmania has done full-length reviews of Almost Human, Night Of The Comet and Scarecrows.  To access those bonus reviews, just click on the title of the film in question...42ND STREET FOREVER VOL. 2: THE DEUCE: https://www.allmovie.com/movie/42nd-street-forever-vol-2-the-deuce-v358877/reviewALMOST HUMAN (a.k.a.
