Curiosidades

Psycho A-Go-Go is a 1965 American crime thriller film directed and produced by Al Adamson. It follows a psychotic jewel thief who abducts a woman and her child to get back some stolen jewels hidden in the child's doll. The film is notable as an early credit for future Oscar-winning cinematographer Vilmos Zsigmond.

Production

Originally titled Echo of Terror, the film was intended by Al Adamson as a vehicle for singer Tacey Robbins, whom he managed at the time. Scenes were shot at The Mutiny, a San Fernando Valley nightclub run by Adamson at the time. Adamson's father Victor was the film's production manager.

Psycho A-Go-Go was the first of several collaborations between Adamson and cinematographer Vilmos Zsigmond (billed under the anglicized 'William Zsigmond'). Zsigmond was brought to the attention of Adamson by actor Arch Hall Jr., who was impressed by his work on the 1963 film The Sadist.

After the original cut failed to sell, Adamson recut and retitled the movie as Psycho A-Go-Go, hoping to play up the sexploitation angle.
