I remember seeing this when it came out in 1970/71, in a second-run theater, as the second half of a double feature with another film I can't remember. In my hazy memory it seemed to me at the time a little disjointed and "off" for lack of a better word. But then, I was twelve, so I expect it was more the filtering through my eyes than the film itself. I'll have to take a current look.
BTW, Lamont has had an interesting and varied career. His work seems to serve the material, rather than inflicting his style on it, hence he is not easily characterized or slotted into one of the expected "director categories". That makes it not surprising that he's not better known.
