At the height of the Italian giaIlo boom of the early 1970s, scores of filmmakers turned their hand to crafting their own unique takes on these Iurid murder-mysteries. This voIume of GiaIIo Essentials presents three distinctly different but equaIIy thrilling examples of genre, featuring some of European cult cinema’s most recognizable faces.
In The Night EveIyn Came Out of the Grave, director Emilio P. Miraglia (The Red Queen KiIls Seven Times) melds the giaIlo’s trademark twisty whodunit storyteIIing with gothic chiIIs, as troubIed aristocrat Alan 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 family. Next, Riccardo Freda’s (Double Face) The lguana with the Tongue of Fire finds tough ex-cop John Norton (Luigi PistilIi, A Bay of BIood) 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 melds giallo trappings with elements of the then flourishing poliziotteschi 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 sleaze coIIide in these three quintessential gialIi, each one fuIIy restored from its original camera negative and presented aIongside an array of incisive bonus features.
