"The Man With Icy Eyes" Music Video (Based on the 1971 Movie) - Albuquerque< NM

This Italian "giallo" (yellow) movie was filmed for some eccentric reason in Albuquerque in 1970. Giallo films tend to have a film-noir/supernatural edge to them - that's why they are called "yellow." 

I love this film because it captures Central Avenue when it was still in its Route 66 neon heyday. Plus, the bad guy is named Valdez, and he tries to hide at the house that became Charles McGill's house in "Better Call Saul." And all the Spanish-speaking bad guys have Italian accents. And Barbara Bouchet is pretty (but with a heart of ice). And Victor Buono (King Tut from the Batman series) is a newspaper editor. It's just so - eccentric! Who does stuff like this?
