BLOOD ON MELIES’ MOON

In the 70s and 80s Luigi Cozzi was the creator of intoxicating pop-icons such as STARCRASH (1978). His first film after a 25 year (!) break is an enchanting lo-fi fantasy, that compensates for its (very) small budget with an excess of creative lunacy (and madness). Cozzi himself plays the lead role who tries to get to the bottom of a mystery from the beginnings of cinema: while doing so he meets friends and family, such as Lamberto Bava, ponders about himself as the Ed Wood of Italian cinema, and finally flies through the air and his own body of work in a Méliès rocket. You can’t get more visionary than that.
