Join us, Nick & Glenn, as we explore the Italian Giallo's and German Krimi's of the 60's & 70's from the films of Dario Argento to the film adaptaion's of Edgar Wallaces' stories.

(Including films such as "Deep Red," The Dead Eyes of London," and much more.)

 

Along with the usual discussion of audio film clips and fun facts, we also discuss the plight of dubbing in foreign film, American version of foreign film and the differences between the two.  We also take a funny look at America's answer to these European masterpieces, The Slasher Film.

Included in the podcast are a couple of terrific musical sound bites of the great scoring of some of these films.  After hearing these, you'll be shouting Bravo Giallo!

We close the show by taking a look at what's scary now versus what was scary then-a more imaginative, creative, and sexier era of film making.
