Dario Argento’s debut Giallo is a slow burn mystery with striking cinematography, stylish camerawork and introduced staples of the genre
Like the painting in the cover of a paperback crime novel come to life. Trashy and fun and totally my shit.
Lots of great visuals, good mystery plot. Not the greatest film overall, but has a lot of good things
A purposely slow paced giallo with great lighting and cinematography. Interesting story and a good reveal. One of Argento's finest.
A classic for sure, lots of interesting camera moves and techniques. A bit slow but very engaging
Almost a blueprint for Giallo moving forward. Black leather gloves, erotic kills, vibes. Not as colorful as his later work but looks great.
A decent mystery and a decent slasher movie combine to make a pretty good start to the giallo genre.
One of Argentos best. Bloody with a good story that provides a great ending. Fans of horror are in for a treat.
Directorial debut for giallo legend, Dario Argento. Solid film. The twist is pretty easy to figure out if you’ve been paying attention.
A great giallo film, more so if it is considered that it's Argento's directorial debut. A must see for fans of the genre.
