Black Belly of the Tarantula
Directed by Paolo Cavara
A policeman hunts a serial killer who paralyzes his victims before slaying them in this cult giallo hit from MONDO CANE director Paolo Cavara. Italian heartthrob Giancarlo Giannini (HANNIBAL) stars as Inspector Tellini, who’s drawn into the web of a psycho who cuts open his frozen female victims, the same way a rare wasp kills a tarantula. Throw in a mysterious women’s spa, three (yes, three!) Bond girls, and a must-hear score by Ennio Morricone and you’ve got a recipe for a grade-A giallo, as stylish and scary as a killer in a crisp black trench coat.

stylish sets, costumes, score
Very good movie, it was suspenseful and intriguing and the characters were interesting. I like giallos
Good film, some plot points I felt didn’t make much sense by the end but it was entertaining
It's decent but I thought it was too long. Worth a watch if you like these kind of movies
Another beautiful giallo.
