The Real Houswivesof New Jerseey Son Is Gay

Giallo Special - Review of "A Blade in the Dark"

musician Bruno write for a new horror movie the appropriate soundtrack. Although he has extra rent for better concentration, a recording studio in an empty villa, it is shortly after anything but calm. The are unfortunately killed suddenly in and around the villa around good-looking women, brutal, with the result that the detective is brought in Bruno. He soon suspects that the murders could have done just to do with the film for which he composed the score ...

Guaranteed no romantic comedy!
After I have already written an article about the not so doll Midnight Ripper ", you should mention it fair to say that Lamberto Bava also Giallo filmed with much higher entertainment value:" A Blade in the Dark ".

MOTHER? You are here and not in Norman?
This is not one of the absolute top league can, but come up with several really exciting, successful gutgedrehten and atmospheric scenes. Added to this is a really creepy soundtrack like "Halloween" (see trailer below) and so powerful some interesting scenes, so that a strip of extremely entertaining way out of it.

And yet a case for the taste police
PS: Small technical note: Beware of the German DVD version of EC Entertainment, some items (even experienced) produce on many players an unpleasant buzzing sound!

Giallo Special - Review of "Forbidden Photos of a Lady Above Suspicion"

Not only that, the English title of this little-known Giallos is quite strange, the German title "Women tortured to madness" really tops everything about nonsense! :-)

The film for all the foot, leg and boot fetishists ...
It mostly goes to a rich wife, of an unknown (real super-nasty-nasty: Simon Andreu) is blackmailed and forced to have sex, among other things. Your attempt to view the offender fails, and now she is mad more and more people held ... or in fact everything was just my imagination? And it is true that her husband is also a murderer?

assi Herrlich: Simon Andreu as a psychopath
even from fans of the genre this is with Giallo negative criticisms heaped plenty of what I think all in all, quite unfair. Certainly the plot is rather tempoarm, the number of murders in the low single digits, and the whole strip rather anemic (the German index of the cut (!) Video Tapes is a real joke ...).

Can time please someone urgently call the taste police?
There is however a great soundtrack by Ennio Morricone, a good camera with knallebunten images and an original (though, unfortunately, something fishy staged) story, which sometimes means later to the lot incurred thriller "Blue Velvet" by David Lynch recalls. Therefore, people, give the film a second chance!

Party on!

Kates Playground Has Hooves

Giallo Special - Review of 'The tail of the Scorpion "

comes thanks to an airplane crash, a merry widow was not a significant amount of money (dollar, Lire) from life insurance of her husband. But it really is innocent of the death of her husband? A short time later, again and again killed people who come into the vicinity of money. Living her husband might yet and takes revenge? Or you have to do it with a psychopath, for whom the money is just a nice bonus?

Sticht powerful: "The tail of the Scorpion"
And so we have arrived in the Giallo-Champions League, "The tail of the scorpion" rocks animal. The plane crash trick is technically a disaster (model with sparklers), but otherwise the film is a hit! Lots of suspects, much tension, Giallo ratios for an extremely logical and coherent plot, cast in top form (including George Hilton, Anita Strindberg) and: Tempo! The film is staged just for his time extremely fast.

guaranteed high voltage!
regarding. optics (always important when Giallo) shows that director Sergio Martino is clearly one of the greats of the guild. Although its composition can not be compared to Mario Bava or Dario Argento, but he conjures but rapid camera pans and zooms to the wacky Leindwand.

Yo Man, on your Gold chain would be any ghetto brother jealous now!
short & to the point: real recommendation!
(Here even the wacky Italian Original Trailer)

Always Hungary Or Thirsty Toddler

Giallo Special - Review of' Midnight Ripper"

True to the motto "Like father like son" has Lamberto Bava (his character son of "Giallo-inventor of Mario Bava ) so some Giallos to answer for. One of the lesser-known works in this genre is the 1986 rolling "Midnight Killer" (from X-Rated published as "Midnight Ripper" in a really snazzy Hardbox - panting) and, like most Giallos from the eighties, not quite in the Yellow of the egg.

was announced in the eighties in Giallo serial killers: Glove & Knife!
one hand, there are some interesting points, a catchy soundtrack and an experienced implementation, including some very nice visual scene has produced. Yet the story bobs around a serial killer who is seemingly resurrected from the dead, then pretty and reminds you more of a partial sequence of "Donna Leon".

The gentlemen of the police - the first thing I would arrest the dresser that apartment
addition, that particularly with the actresses some ladies her acting skills have not left at home and the film with other Giallos even quite brazenly steal (even from a punch line is "The Mystery of the Crystal Plumage " has been virtually taken over 1:1). Amazingly for the Eighties: The blood level is quite restrained! All in all, a strip, which, while talking halfway, but certainly not one of the really good works of the genre.

DC's scrambled eggs ....
the trailer you can see here the way , otherwise I have fun on YouTube as another Live performance displayed the rather catchy title theme - Eighties film score-at it's best! :-)
