Flashman (1967)
Superhero Flashman--who is secretly a member of the British royal family--battles a host of villains and gangsters, including Mafia bank robbers and a gang of beautiful female counterfeiters.
Ridiculous superhero spoof is more trashy and exploitative than funny.
Le collectionneur des cerveaux (1976)
A young pianist is shocked when she witnesses a strange chess tournament with a robot and assumes there is a gruesome secret behind this exhibition.
Unusual TV mystery creates a disquieting Gothic atmosphere and offers some creepy shocks at the ending.
