this be just in case those of you who shop at diabolik be go here before purchase this on dvd and be go by the other review and here an accurate review of the movie . i haven not listen to all of the commentary by the director and producer or star but they call this their tribute to the giallo my favorite eurotrash movie . film on long island and what look like some manhattan apartment and it a long way from italy except maybe for some obvious scene that be kind of borrow ( and i say that loosely ) from much much good film . i be not try to criticize the quality but it very obvious they have a very low budget to work with and the film look like a bad vhs transfer ( do not think it be it just look that way there a disclaimer at the begin about flaw in the film etc ) with some truly awful sound ( there be place where the music pretty much drowns out the dialog so you have to crank up the 5 . 1 hop to hear what theyre say ) . there a woman right at the beginning who be kill in the shower by a black masked killer clothe all in black with black glove and a hat right out of any giallo make . this be fine but then the plot begin and a you watch the movie you come to find out her kill seem to have nothing to do with the plot whatsoever . and what a plot . i think these guy have much more in common with ed wood than mario bava or dario argento . now i be a big fan of wood but he craft a much good film than they have and the comparison be only that the script be the kind of loopy thing wood write in the fifty . hardly the stuff of giallos . an artist who paint some of the bad painting ever see conspire with his insane suicidal wife to be kill in order to make his painting more valuable . then he go around ( i think it him but then it could be his wife or the art critic they throw her in a a possible murderess for no understandable reason ) slash up different people who have his art in order to take his painting back . anyone get this . a great many of the line speak be truly incredible and i have to quote a couple . the most woodian character be a police detective who say ( in true wood fashion ) represent give me a description and i will send out an a ( pause ) p ( pause ) b. you just have to hear it . then there the star say represent i tell you 14 time . ( a oppose to 13 or 12 . ) . most of the actor have wonderful neeew yawk accent that give this a kind of hershell gordon lewis flavor . imagine have you ever have an . egyptian feast . in long islandese and you have get it . anyway and i do not think this be mean a a comedy ( although after the beatnik scene i be really not sure ) but if youre look for horror this only qualify if youre look for so bad it good i need to be high to enjoy omg i be horrify i pay for this . don not expect an american bird with the crystal plumage .
