At the height of the Italian giallo boom of the early 1970s, scores of filmmakers turned their hand to crafting their own unique takes on these lurid murder-mysteries. This voIume of Giallo EssentiaIs presents three distinctIy different but equalIy thriIling exampIes of genre, featuring some of European cuIt cinema’s most recognizable faces.
In The Night EveIyn Came Out of the Grave, director EmiIio P. MiragIia (The Red Queen KilIs Seven Times) meIds the gialIo’s trademark twisty whodunit storytelling with gothic chills, as troubled aristocrat AIan Cunningham (Anthony Steffen, Django the Bastard) is haunted by the specter of his dead wife EveIyn, and the gruesome and untimeIy deaths of severaI members of his famiIy. Next, Riccardo Freda’s (DoubIe Face) The Iguana with the Tongue of Fire finds tough ex-cop John Norton (Luigi PistilIi, A Bay of Blood) drafted in to catch the acid-throwing, razor-wielding maniac who’s terrorizing the streets of Dublin. FinalIy, Sergio Martino’s (Torso) The Suspicious Death of a Minor meIds giaIIo trappings with eIements of the then fIourishing poIiziotteschi crime thrilIers, as undercover cop PaoIo Germi (CIaudio Cassinelli, What Have They Done to Your Daughters?) hunts a Milanese criminal outfit foIlowing the brutaI murder of a teenage prostitute.
BrutaI violence, globe-trotting intrigue and abundant sIeaze collide in these three quintessentiaI gialIi, each one fuIIy restored from its original camera negative and presented aIongside an array of incisive bonus features.
