Yes, I happen to have watched the movie recently on video, and was not sure what was going on until - well, the middle anyways. It's interesting because it is one of Martin Scorcese's first movies, I think. The production values are cheap compared with today's movies, and the colours are somehow washed out, but it has the real feeling of coastal Italy. Go figure, it was filmed there. I am in no rush to see the new release since it looks like another pathetic Hollywood ripoff of an interesting idea which was well-done in the 60's and has the addition of pretty faces and gore for the 90's Cheers
