Italian horror on DVD

Njutafilms har samlat fyra skräckfilmer i den italienska genren giallo i en box. Samtidigt har Studio S valt att ge ut Dario Argentos Profondo rosso i två versioner. Filmerna finns nu att låna i Biblioteket.

The movies are published with their Italian and English titles: "I corpi presentano tracce di violenza carnale" (Torso) (1973) by Sergio Martino, "Lo squartone di New York" (New York ripper) (1982) by Lucio Fulci, "Deliria, bloody bird" (Stage fright) (1987) by Michele Soavi och "L’uomo senza memoria" (Puzzle) (1974) by Duccio Tessari. "Profondo rosso" (Deep red) (1975), directed by Dario Argento, includes a long and a shorter export version.

If you want to deepen your knowledge about the giallo genre, pick up Mikel J Kovens La dolce morte: vernacular cinema and the Italian giallo film or perhaps a book on one of the directors such as Beyond terror: the films of Lucio Fulci by Stephen Thrower or Alan Jones' Profondo Argento : the man, the myths & the magic.
