after year of hear about the brilliance of bava and his contemporary and the influence they have on modern horror and particularly slasher film ( which i will admit to have a morbid interest in ) and i finally watch this film last weekend . all i can say be and huh . before i get flame represent yes and i know that giallo film be suppose to be short on plot and long on style . but i do not get any sense of danger or suspense at all during this movie and only of a desire for it to be over . spoiler ahead represent only the hang death at the beginning be of any interest and mainly because every other murder in the entire movie look a if it be douse in red tempera paint . there be almost no realism to any of the murder . the beheading be particularly ludicrous represent there be hole in the back of the neck of the decapitate body . sorry and giallo fan and but i just do not get what all the fuss be about .
