- TriviaThis was the first American International release to be in both color and CinemaScope.
- Alternate versionsThe original UK cinema version was cut heavily by the BBFC to edit scenes of gore including the ice tongs stabbing, a man's body sinking into an acid bath, sounds of screaming during the binocular murder and shots of a woman's decapitated head being placed into a bag (a proposed cut to the shot of the bloodstained binoculars was never made). Later releases all feature the same cut print and it appears this footage may now be lost forever.

Featured review
Michael Gough plays a mystery writer who arranges to bump off several dames to increase his popularity (and sales of his latest book about murder). One blonde (with ample cleavage) gets binoculared to death, while her red-headed roommate (with ampler cleavage) looks on in horror. Then Gough's "ho" tells him where to get off, and she is done in by Gough's assistant, using a hand-held guillotine - you know, the kind you can buy on QVC. By using a pair of ice tongs, Gough offs an old crone who runs an antique store. Well, the list goes on, but you get the idea.
Gough, as usual, is hammy over the top, but not nearly as crazy as he is in "Konga." He is delicious to watch as he needles Scotland Yard, and vents his spleen at his assistant (Graham Curnow). June Cunningham, as Gough's chick, has the smallest waist coupled with the largest hips I've seen in some time. She also treats the audience to about a 50-second dance in a bar. By the time she is done, every guy watching will figure out his sexual orientation.
