Apr 20, 2024 · Bad Inclination (Cattive Inclinazioni) (2003) is a late neo-giallo. The plot hinges on a series of mysterious murders in a building committed with a metal carpenter's square (unique weapon) and...
Lamentable attempt at a giallo revival it gets most things wrong (particularly the atmosphere so essential to this subgenre, completely negated here by flat TV style) and should, in fact, have been called BAD FILM-MAKING!

If a mysterious person is wearing black gloves and stabbing gorgeous and bosomy nude females to death in their beds, it's probably a Giallo. If a mafioso with a glorious mustache is being chased by a hardnosed cop with a glorious mustache on a motorcycle it's probably eurocrime, to put it like that. 4. Reply.

The first name in Italian horror is Mario Bava, and 1964's Blood and Black Lace is just one of the master’s contributions to giallo. “Suddenly, these lace curtains ignite a drama that will lacerate your emotions!” promises this version of the film’s trailer. And the movie itself, which stars frequent Bava leading man Cameron Mitchell and features a...
Lucio Fulci is maybe best-known for his films that are classified as straight-up horror: The Beyond, Zombi 2, The House By the Cemetery, etc., but his giallo game was also strong. A Lizard in a Woman’s Skin is our top Fulci pick; it’s about a woman whose freaky dreams become even more terrifying when she imagines she’s murdered her seductive neighb...

But Argento has a deep affection for giallo, too—he even made a film literally titled Giallo in 2009. His most influential genre efforts, though, came earlier in his ca...

Euro-crime) films and the memorably horrific zombie flick Nightmare City. Plus, the prolific filmmaker also made this loose adaptation of Seven Blood-Stained Orchids, a story by British writer Edgar Walla...
This is a well intended, but poorly executed Giallo tribute. The plot is pure Giallo and focuses on a murderer in an apartment block, inhabited by a myriad of strange (mostly female) characters.
In no way is it anywhere close to even the lowest level 70s giallo, but it does have some nice gore effects. It’s not as bad as some reviews will say, but I think you need to be obsessed with the genre to enjoy this.
