Italian Horror
Well, my Full Moon features addiction has abated, and for the past couple months I have transitioned to a full blown addiction to any and all Italian horror, so far I've seen (and highly recommend to anyone):
Argento: Due occhi diabolici L'uccello dalle piume di cristallo Phenomena Tenebrae Inferno Non ho sonno Profondo Rosso (with English subtitles) La terza madre Opera Suspiria Door Into Darkness Bava, Lamberto: Dèmoni Dèmoni 2 L'incubo ritorna Macabro Bava, Mario: I Vampiri La maschera del demonio Sei donne per l'assassino Fulci: E tu vivrai nel terrore - L'aldilà Paura nella città dei morti viventi Un Gato Nel Cervello (i volti del terrore) Manhatten Baby Quando Alice ruppe lo specchio Una lucertola con la pelle di donna Non si sevizia un paperino Quella villa accanto al cimitero Zombi Soavi: Dellamorte Dellamore La Chiesa La Setta I love all these movies, I only wish I came to them sooner, but if I had its likely I wouldn't have appreciated them. I cannot recommend these enough, if you consider yourself a fan of horror you owe it to yourself to watch as much of these films as you can. The reason many American slasher films exist is because of a lot of these movies, many of the cliches were invented here (especially in Mario Bava giallos). Except in these films they were done with style and good direction. And much wonderful gore, lol. Now a few questions: 1) Does anyone know where and/or what specific DVD releases of any of these movies have spoken Italian language with English subtitles? I've only found a couple. I really want to watch Fulci's 'Paura nella città dei morti viventi' (City of the Living Dead) and 'Quella villa accanto al cimitero' (House by the Cemetery) in Italian - the English dubbing is just awful. This is also a really great way to learn Italian, I watched Argento's Pofondo Rosso with English subs, it was great. 2) Are there any glaring omissions to my list? I know there are at least a handful more Mario Bava films I need to watch. Any other euro-horror I should check out?

I'm a big Argento fan. One film from him I would recommend:
The Stendhal Syndrome |

What did you think of 'La terza madre'? I actually liked it. Should I see 'Giallo'?

I haven't seen Giallo yet, but it looks well worth watching (I think a member of this forum cowrote this film with Dario Argento so I'm definitely going to check it out). |

Sean and his writing partner wrote the script and then Dario did what he does...

I believe some of the Shriek Show and Grindhouse releases have Italian audio.
I've just got local releases that are dubbed. The dubbing is part of the fun of these films IMO. |
