Readers who are more familiar with later iterations of Peter Seller’s famous Clouseau character might be surprised by the good Inspector’s first film appearance here. Readers already familiar with this first foray will still be mightily impressed by Kino-Lorber’s new 4K transfer of the film’s original Technirama negative.

Thrills, Chills, & Spills: RETALIATION (Shima Wa Moratta)
by JB
