A Blade in the Dark

A Blade in the Dark

Directed by Lamberto Bava

In Lamberto Bava’s second contribution to the giallo genre, a psychopath stalks a composer who’s writing the score for a horror film. After the film’s director sets Bruno up in a stylish house, he begins working on the Goblin-esque score, not realizing that a real maniac is slicing up women all over the property. Bruno soon learns the film holds the key to catching the killer, and that he and his girlfriend are in grave danger. Bava follows the footsteps of his famous father, serving up a stylish slasher filled with memorable murders and a Hitchcockian finale.

Feels alot different than the other giallos I've seen on here which are all predictable and same thing. I don't think it's a great movie overall but still very fun watch just felt way more of a slow burn horror, dubbing wasn't too bad. Creepy and gorey in parts, main guy is a little dull but it doesn't take away from the atmosphere.

Writing my first review just to point out that this score is very much not "Goblin-esque". Hope you like your Gaillo's as poorly written as possible! I do, so this was fun.

Nothing of note to pull from this. Kinda boring compared to others I've seen recently. None of the characters clicked. Would not recommend this.
