    Il Mostor Di Firenzia (The Monster of Florence) 1986

    Interesting film that is based on the 16 real life murders of "The Monster of Florence". It has a pretty good soundtrack and atmosphere, the movie gets a little presumptuous in the 2nd act though. I recommend that anyone who hasn't seen it give it a look

    Tropic of Cancer

    Pretty sweet flick if you can get passed all of the nudity (some of it is male)
    This one actually is a giallo set in Haiti and makes pretty good use of the location. The soundtrack is light but very fun, and there is quite a bit of brutal imagery. One killing and subsequent entombment was particularly rough. i would definitely give this one a check if you haven't seen it.

    Puzzle aka Man Without a Memory

    I really enjoyed this one, although it plays out more as a crime mystery and isn't full of action. The soundtrack is phenomenal and the acting from the leads is good. Style and substance were both well represented here. Just don't expect a lot of killings or gore (there are a few sweet scenes). The mystery slowly unfolds, drawing you in from the start, and it's complimented nicely by stylish direction. Tons of escapism here, it was a fun departure from the norm.

    Watched a couple new Gialli today.

    The Fifth Cord
    Very well shot film, that made good use of the varied, and interesting architecture. The pacing was to slow for my liking, well I guess it's because I really didn't care for the main actor. Yes i've seen him in other flicks but, Franco Nero isn't one of my Euro favorites. I would say this is definitely worth checking if you haven't seen it, as it's very popular. That and even though I wasn't to thrilled with it, I may re-watch it again. Sometimes you gain more appreciation for a film upon subsequent viewings.

    Red Light Girls
    Cool name, crappy movie.
    Wasn't really a giallo imo and the best thing about it was the British Film Boards X rating, in the beginning. Went in and out while watching this so the rating is very low. Some of the nudity was sweet though, but a 3/10 is ultimately what it was.

    The Red Headed Corpse

    More or less a soft-core film about a red headed nympho, that goes nowhere fast. It remains uninteresting throughout, and nothing redeeming can be found anywhere in the film, avoid it at all costs.

    Watched "Deep Red" last night. Was shocked at how much I liked it.

    My friend, who brought it back from England lent it to me, said it was the extended version @ 126 minutes.

    Best DA movie I've seen so far.

    apparently Deep Red has been announced for a 2011 release....

    Romero on Deep Red Remake: "There's No Deal"

    Source: Fangoria May 19, 2010

    Film markets often give way to surprising, sometimes bold, film announcements and horror fans were bowled over on Sunday when Claudio Argento announced George Romero was going to remake Dario Argento's Deep Red in 3D.

    But wait just a minute, says Romero. In an interview with Fangoria, he tells Tony Timpone that there "is no deal" locked for him to direct. Furthermore, he won't do it "if Dario doesn't approve."

    Seen this one and alot other of his works. The reason why I said I was "shocked" was because most of his films bore me.

    Romero is so awesome! Look at this, He has so much respect for Argento that with he won't remake it with out his blessing. The man is a god..... I bet Dario feels the same toward him.

    Mystere

    Interesting film about a high end call girl named Mystere, that boasts a punchy soundtrack, and capable direction. Nothing spectacular will be found but it was a nice flick, that starts off Giallo, then turns into a Polizia affair. I did find the ending quite refreshing and was surprised by how much I actually enjoyed it. Recommended if you enjoy with crime stories, and can get by without constant bloodshed.

    The Sisters of Ursula 4/10

    Tos of nudity, as the film is more of a softcore, than Giallo. The best looking chick in the film, is also the only one that doesn't get naked

    Fortunately she gets naked in Suspicious Death of a Minor

    Agreed on that, it's definitely one of his top shelf films.

    5 Dolls for an August Moon

    The story is pretty basic, a little confusing and hardly interesting. What thee fuck..this script sucked.
    I enjoy one scene, well several of the same scene that they just kept revisiting
    Spoiler...
    which shows the bodies being bagged and stored in the meat freezer.

    That was awesome!

    The story is a pretty simple one: wealthy couples gather on a remote Mediterranean island. Three of the men are investors and one is the inventor of an industrial formula that he refuses to sell them. One by one the members of the group start turning up dead. The phone’s disconnected and the boat has disappeared.....

    The story doesn’t really have much of a hook to it. Most of the killings take place off screen and character development is especially weak and confusing. For the most part it’s tough to keep up with who’s who and there’s a further confusing part with a young girl running around the island that doesn’t seem connected to anyone. It put me at a place where I didn't care who got killed next, nor did I care very much about whodunit.

    I read Bava made no pretensions on this project. To him it was just a paycheck, directed from a script by Mario di Nardo. He claimed that it was the worst film he ever made. I also read that more people think Knives of the Avenger was worse than this film.

    I'm looking further into Mario Bava films. Next I may visit Hatchet for the Honeymoon.
