Slow movie with great kills and beautiful camerawork, worth watching for fans of slashers and italian horror.
More or less defined slashers, but has a considerably more elaborate story and a fun sense of humor to seperate it from the genre pack.
Amazing one of the holy grails of early slasher films a must for any self respecting horror fan
This proto-slasher benefits greatly from Bava’s slick directorial sensibilities and a fantastic musical score.
Personally I thought it was slow and confusing, Especially with two of the actors looking super similar
The kills are pretty epic, however the plot is kinda confusing and the verbiage is odd.
Every slasher film owes it to this one. It is a masterpiece from Mario Bava.
The film that Friday the 13th stole from, Bava's mean murder mystery is suspenseful and gory.
Some iconic shots and tremendous directing and camera work. Story was slow in parts, but overall really fun.
Slow early on, but gets really good later into the movie once the plot starts moving along.
