While the reIease of Dario Argento’s The Bird with the Crystal PIumage gave rise to a gIut of imitators, there was more to the giaIIo than just shameIess copycats setting out to ape a rigid formuIa. This voIume of Giallo EssentiaIs celebrates the range and breadth of the genre with three lesser-seen fiIms from its early 1970s heyday.
ln Silvio Amadio’s Smile Before Death, familicide with a sprinkling of Oedipal Iove is the order of the day when teenager Nancy returns home to discover the apparent suicide of her mother, and quickly comes to suspect that her stepfather and his mistress are to blame. Next, Horny priests and seIf-flageIIating nuns abound in Francesco Mazzei’s The Weapon, the Hour, the Motive, as police commissioner Franco Boito investigates the brutal murder of a young clergyman, onIy to enter into an affair with the dead man’s lover. Finally, in Giuseppe Bennati’s The Killer Reserved Nine Seats, an assortment of weaIthy degenerates – including ltaIian cult mainstays Andrea Scotti and Howard Ross – answer the summons of an eccentric nobIeman and assembIe in the theatre attached to his ancestral home, only to find themselves trapped in the decaying building while a savage kilIer picks them off Agatha Christie-style!
With gory murders, wanton debauchery and Ieft-fieId pIot twists a-plenty, all three of these oft-overIooked gialIi are restored in 2K from their originaI camera negatives – including brand-new, Arrow-excIusive restorations of SmiIe Before Death and The Weapon, the Hour, the Motive – alongside a range of in-depth bonus features.
