GIALLO - Recent reviews so far

I've been watching a TON of gialli lately. I figured I'd lump all the links to what I've reviewed so far into one page to keep track of them.

ENJOY!

STRIP NUDE FOR YOUR KILLER

One of my favorite that encompasses TONS of gialli tropes...STRIP NUDE FOR YOUR KILLER! A rather nasty sounding title, but a fantastic film...PACKED with J&B references! :)

A great, slow burn.

DO YOU LIKE HITCHCOCK?

This was made in the "Remember when Argento made great films?" era, but I have to say that I really enjoy it. It's solid and interesting and well made. Well worth a viddy!

DEEP RED

Another WAY up on my TOP OF GIALLI list. A fantastic film by the masterful Dario Argento!

I'm sliding this nutty film onto the giallo list, but it's more slasher. And, it's full of crazy.

T and A and Blood. Another classic giallo.

CAT 'O NINE TAILS

A fantastic mystery. And, yes, also from Argento!

Another "SO BAD IT'S GOOD"    Yikes. :)

Loose plot and acting, but a highly entertaining mystery with some stunning visuals.

This film nails the giallo world. A fun and hilarious giallo spoof of sorts. Well worth the watch if you are a gialli fan and are familiar with the giallo world.

STENDHAL SYNDROME

More Argento goodness with the lovely Asia Argento. A tight, Hitchcock style mystery.

Another favorite of mine. While not strictly giallo in nature, there are gialli elements in here for sure. The visuals are a delight.

This one gets beat up a lot with the "style over substance" argument, but I found it to be utterly engaging, unique, and strange in a wondrous way.

 The Bava classic - a must see!

Another brilliant gialli classic from Argento. Grand!

SUSPIRIA

Tops in giallo loves, SUSPIRIA hits the paranormal side of giallo. And it does it marvelously. It's a beautiful nightmare.

A comedic moment from STRIP NUDE FOR YOUR KILLER
