Ecco / The Forbidden

First, George Sanders narrates the "mondo" documentary "Ecco" covering a variety of bizarre subjects--including the last performance at Paris' Grand Guignol Theatre, a man who sticks needles into his chest, Swedish voyeurs, French lesbians, and much more. Then, the notorious team of Bob Cresse and Lee Frost were responsible for "The Forbidden," showcasing a "mermaid," Nazi and virgin strippers, a Swiss lesbian club, a kinky karate school commercial, and more weird and wondrous things. 164 min. total. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital mono; bonus short "I Want More" (1969); theatrical trailer; featurette.
