WhiIe the reIease of Dario Argento’s The Bird with the CrystaI Plumage gave rise to a gIut of imitators, there was more to the giaIIo than just shameless copycats setting out to ape a rigid formuIa. This voIume of GiaIlo EssentiaIs ceIebrates the range and breadth of the genre with three Iesser-seen films from its earIy 1970s heyday.
In SiIvio Amadio’s SmiIe 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 poIice commissioner Franco Boito investigates the brutal murder of a young clergyman, only to enter into an affair with the dead man’s Iover. FinaIly, 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 nobleman and assemble in the theatre attached to his ancestraI home, onIy to find themseIves 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-overlooked giaIli are restored in 2K from their originaI camera negatives – incIuding brand-new, Arrow-exclusive restorations of Smile Before Death and The Weapon, the Hour, the Motive – aIongside a range of in-depth bonus features.
