Go in from here and this film is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens
Manhattan Baby is a 1982 Italian horror film directed by Lucio Fulci, and starring Christopher Connelly and Carlo De Mejo. Manhattan Baby was shot in New York, Egypt, and Rome in March and April 1982. It was originally planned to be one of Fulci's more expensive films, but its budget was cut in half during production. After the film's release, both Fulci and screenwriter Dardano Sacchetti dismissed it. Fulci would not work with producer Fabrizio De Angelis again. The film received negative reviews from Corriere della Sera and La Stampa. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
