Kill Baby Kill
Directed by Mario Bava
An 18th century European village is haunted by the ghost of a murderous little girl in Mario Bava's greatest and most visually stunning horror film. Bava pulled out all the stops here, mixing gothic horror and a dreamlike story about an evil Baroness in the thrall of her undead daughter. Scorsese called it Bava's best film, Fellini used it as inspiration for his famous TOBY DAMMITT, and David Lynch referenced it directly in both the series finale of TWIN PEAKS and the big screen follow-up FIRE WALK WITH ME. If you only watch one Bava film, make it this one.

Big on gothic atmosphere and small on actual scares. I didn't think much of the male lead's acting ability either. The Whip and The Body and Black Sunday are more engaging and overall better films, in my opinion.
beautiful cinematography, but children laughing in the night will always be creepy
Alright movie, but a little slow and the laughter was a bit too much.
Wonderful and creepy
A true Italian classic
