A wizard of the Middle Ages, while exorcising a girl, swallows eggnog and tells two suckers various Boccaccio stories.
Costume
Ridiculous medieval cosplay that somehow cost money.
Writing
Boccaccio's Decameron reduced to horny wizard framing device.

Campitelli's visibly drunk wizard performance is accidentally compelling.
Director
Lucio Dandolo
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Part of Italy's 1970s 'Decamerotici' boom—dozens of cheap Boccaccio adaptations riding Pier Paolo Pasolini's 1971 Decameron coattails. Dandolo made three in two years.
Mariangela Giordano later became a cult horror queen in Lucio Fulci films; this early role has her fleeing imaginary demons before she'd face real ones in The House by the Cemetery.
