Not really. I hate going through the first hour of shitty written drama and awful performances.

I feel the same about any horror subgenre based around murdering the cast halfway through.

I love Giallo

Suspiria isn't giallo

Profondo Rosso is the comfiest giallo

bigger fan of bava
>>
Argento or Bava? Who's the real king of Giallos? Or is it Hitchcock?
>>
no
>>
>>70090707

yea, the never ending inscrutable real estate quiproquo and quadruple crossings... can't drum up the interest to follow any of it. so i can'T say i'm a big fan but it can be interesting to watch one once in a while, or try to.
>>
>>70091265
Bava by a country mile

I love Argento, but even his best can't compare to the likes of Black Sunday, Kill Baby Kill or Lisa and the Devil.
>>
>>70091265

What a stupid question, they're not even contemporaries.
>>
>>70091484
How so? Bava worked until the late 70's and Argento got into the industry during the 60's
>>
>>70091571

How can there be a question over who the king is when one studied under the other?
>>
>>70090664

The concept of that film alone is frightening. Solid 90s Argento he's got atleast 6 or 7 I'd rank above it. Also why does Dario love getting his daughter naked in every film? I mean she's hot but it's creepy.

But no OP /TV/ probably hasn't seen anything other than a few Argento and maybe Fulci films.

While on the topic of Dario how awesome is Bird With the Crystal Plumage?
>>
>>70091265
argento made better movies, bava made better giallo.
>>
>>70090664

Sleepless came out a few years later I'd call that his last good one, some great set pieces.
>>
>>70091737
I think you have that backwards
>>
If people don't recognize Bava as the emperor of italian horror, they haven't seen the light yet.
Argento and Gialo are like the hands of said emperor- also impactful but not at the same level as Bava

How the fuck did Argento go full retard after the 90's?

The Strange Vice of Mrs. Wardh and Blue Eyes of the Broken Doll are my favorites

Can someone recommend some Italian horror that's not Bava or Argento?

old age, dementia. most directors lose their skills when they enter their twilight years. very few have the guts to quite while they're ahead...

Some, but be honest. Most Italian horror movies are absolute fucking dogshit. So much trash from Italy.
>>
>>70093066
Most movies in general are dogshit, Italian films are no different
>>
>>70093139

Naw, Italy produced lots of terrible dogshit that rode off other popular films and practically ripped them off. Italians don't really have good imagination. Even fistful of dollars is basically a Kurosawa movie.

I liked that movie.
I paid way too much for a crappy vhs rip I found on eBay, but it was worth it.

It's on blu-ray now from Arrow Video, and the transfer is great
