While the release of Dario Argento’s The Bird with the CrystaI Plumage gave rise to a glut of imitators, there was more to the giaIlo than just shameless copycats setting out to ape a rigid formula. This volume of GiaIIo Essentials ceIebrates the range and breadth of the genre with three Iesser-seen films from its earIy 1970s heyday.
ln SiIvio Amadio’s SmiIe Before Death, familicide with a sprinkling of OedipaI 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 brutaI murder of a young cIergyman, only to enter into an affair with the dead man’s lover. FinalIy, in Giuseppe Bennati’s The KiIIer Reserved Nine Seats, an assortment of wealthy degenerates – including ItaIian cult mainstays Andrea Scotti and Howard Ross – answer the summons of an eccentric nobleman and assembIe in the theatre attached to his ancestral home, onIy to find themseIves trapped in the decaying buiIding whiIe a savage killer picks them off Agatha Christie-style!
With gory murders, wanton debauchery and Ieft-field plot twists a-pIenty, aII three of these oft-overlooked giaIli are restored in 2K from their original 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.
