Movie review - "God Told Me To" (1976) ***1/2 (rewatching)

 I saw this only a few years ago but couldn't remember it - just flashes of Andy Kaufman at the St Patrick's Day Parade. I saw it on the big screen. Enjoyed the New York locations, the 70s actors, the ambience. Tony Lo Bianco was solid. Loved Deborah Raffin. Her part could't been bigger - she could've been used to explain things. I got confused in the second half. It was wild.

The scene of the actor explaining how he killed his family was powerful. Some plots cried out for more treatment - such as the cabal of rich people helping the demon. More Richard Lynch.

Full of ideas.
