Product Description

"Giallo" films are characterized by extended murder sequences featuring excessive bloodletting, stylish camera work and unusual musical arrangements. The literary whodunit element is retained, but combined with modern slasher horror, while being filtered through Italy's longstanding tradition of opera and staged grand guignol drama. The genre had its heyday in the 1970's, with dozens of Italian giallo films released. This collector's set has a trio of Giallo's that fit that genre perfectly - Blood and Black Lace, Bird With a Crystal Plumage and Watch Me When I Kill. All three movies will be individually wrapped and sold together in this all new collector's slip case. Bonus Features: Blood and Black Lace: Photo Galleries, Bios, Commentary by Tim Lucas (Editor of the Video Watchdog), Interviews with Mary Dawne Arden and Cameron Mitchell, Bonus Music Track by composer Carlo Rustichelli| Original theatrical trailer.

Customer Reviews

the best in Giallo!!!
If you are new to the "giallo" genre, this is a must in your collection of horror/thrillers. Three of the best films are included here: "The Bird with the Crystal Plumage" (one of Dario Argento's best, next to "Four Flies on Grey Velvet" and "Tenebrae"). Amazing soundtrack as well. "Blood and Black Lace" (from the master of Italian horror, Mario Bava). A fashion house of murders is plot. A brilliant film with beautiful lighting and intensity! "Watch Me when I Kill" by Antonio Bido is his best film!
I highly recommended this box set to any horror film fan!!! Classics!!!!
