Vault Note

The sequel that proves truth really is stranger (and gnarlier) than fiction.

Programmer's Pick

If you thought the original was wild, this sequel doubles down on the outrageous: from animal cruelty to religious spectacle, nothing escapes the camera’s unflinching eye. With a psychotronic parade of human oddities and global taboos, Mondo Pazzo cements its status as a grindhouse shockumentary that’s as unsettling as it is fascinating.
