This is not, the great Lucio Fulci's, best film. Although certainly it is not one of his worst, I didn't like Zombie 3 or The Ghosts of Sodom, both made in 1988. Neither was it one of his best like; Zombie (1979), The Psychic (1977), Don't Torture a Duckling (1972) and A Lizard in a Woman's Skin (1971). Even though, Manhattan Baby (1982), is not so wonderful, just the same year he had made the vicious and thrilling, The New York Ripper. I did like the background with the Egypt pyramid tomb and I thought that the children were good and the music was fine, rather jazzy by Fabio Frizzi. Less good were the adult actors, especially Christopher Connelly and I didn't think much of the writing even if Dardano Sacchetti is usually splendid. So maybe this one just didn't do it for me.
