TEENAGE GANG DEBS 1966 (SOMETHING WEIRD)

Wow...this was interesting.

This is a very low budget film shot in Brooklyn and it's always nice to see how great the world looked back in those days.

The story concerns a nice looking young woman who has just moved into the area. Her name is Terry (Diane Conti) and she immediately makes a move on the leader of a gang.

They become an item until Terry sets her sights on Nino (Joey Naudic), another gang member and convinces him to kill the current leader, which he does.

Slowly Terry begins to take total control on Nino and the gang. She orders the killing of several people and tries to get a huge rumble going so more people will die. She does get her comeuppance at the end in a very interesting way

We are never told why she is like she is, but she quickly becomes one of the screens most memorable characters. The film issometimes too dark, but that is because of the budget and the lighting used.

However, I wouldn't let that deter you from seeing this really gritty picture which shows New York gang life in the 1960's. I resally recommend this film.
