Discovering films on Blu-ray and DVD

Italian Giallo Films

  • When you first come to [giallo films] it’s about the horror aspects of it, I think, about the violence, about the murder mysteries, about the nudity and the titillation, and that sort of thing. I think that’s really important for most people when they first start watching them. But, in my case, when I watched a little bit more I started really falling in love with the music. And when I watch them now, I really appreciate the architecture, the fashion and the Italian feel of it. I think that’s really just as important as the murder mystery aspects of the films.

    Giallo pictures to me, this is why I love them so much, they operate in a sort of an alternate universe, they have their own rules, they have their own ways of doing things.
