Audience Member I have a complicated relationship with Lamberto Bava. And by that, I mean that for every Demons, there's a Devilfish. But then I realize that I kind of like Blastfighter, love Macabre and even kind of dig Delirium. I always give him another chance and I feel like someday, I won't feel like Lamberto is going to let me down every time I see his signature on a film. In July of 1986, Lamberto was hired to create five TV movies under the title Brivido Giallo (Yellow Thrill). Of course, none of these were giallo and only four got made: Until Death, The Ogre, Dinner with a Vampire and this film. Originally titled Dentro il cimitero (Inside the Cemetery), this spoof of Italian horror is about five twnetysomething teenagers who make a bet with an entire town — which is literally referred to as the kind of place from An American Werewolf In London — to see if they can survive one evening inside a series of catacombs. Not only are there zombies and vampires in there, there's also death itself. It all starts off with plenty of promise, as our gang of young punks has the most 80s van ever, complete with an image from Heavy Metal, U2 and Madonna. After the crew shoplifts, they go on the run and straight into supernatural trouble. The person they're stealing from? Lamberto. Which is only fair, as he uses this movie to rip off everything from — sorry, spoof or pay homage to — Carnival of Souls and Phenomena to his father's Black Sunday and any number of zombie movies. So where does the eating come in? Well, there's one great scene in here where an entire family of multiple eyed creatures all dine on rotten food. This moment had to have inspired Pan's Labyrinth, if only for Guillermo del Toro to try to make something good out of, well, another movie where Lamberto lets me down. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member Highly enjoyable atmospheric B-Horror--Bava Rules!! Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member An unfortunate made-for-Italian-television supernatural horror film from Lamberto Bava. This film's few atmospheric moments were lost amongst the overall tedium of the film--it is just too damn boring to watch. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Mario Bava était un génie de la série B, capable de transcender son budget sans problème. Chez son fils Lamberto, c'est du Z friqué et inconsistant. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member An Italian horror film with no blood and nobody dies, wtf? Some of the monsters are nifty looking but that's about the only thing it has going for it. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member Slow paced. Death count 0 Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Read all reviews
