Vitor O A very good early slasher film, directed with loads of style by Mario Bava, the "Master of Italian Horror". Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/15/25 Full Review Steven M Good, colorful murder mystery. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/26/25 Full Review Insomniac X Enthralling Italian murder mystery that solidified many of the tropes of the slasher genre. Visually arresting from its very first frames, the film features the richly decorated sets, candy-colored lighting, and nimble camerawork that would become mainstays of giallo filmmaking in the following decades. Despite some stilted dialogue and questionable dubbing, its central mystery is strong enough to maintain suspense and interest throughout. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/08/25 Full Review vezna v 1964 classic. Old theme but the actual killer or killers is a surprise plus motives. For it's time it is fine. Italian but most of the actors are light. Thomas Reiner is A German Actor. I assume the other are Italian. Great lighting and visuals. Set in Europe. Classical back drop. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/29/24 Full Review Dave C Poised, masterful, and beautiful, this is not what you'd expect of a horror... the terror tropes have been reformed here, with aplomb, and it really works. A considered story from every angle, it is a joy to watch Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/22/24 Full Review Alec B Hugely influential and exists in a myriad of contradictions (beautifully shot and grotesque, high camp as well as serious emotional stakes, the murders are shockingly brutal but you empathize with the killer, etc.) Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/14/24 Full Review Read all reviews
