"La Venus d'Ille"
Roussillon, the early nineteenth century: the young Alfonso de Peyrehohade is about to marry, but a statue of Venus, recently discovered in his possession, the claim itself and the wedding night will be unpleasant developments. Broadcast Rai in 1979, "The Venus d'Ille "is the swan song of Mario Bava and his passing of the baton to his son Lamberto, in spite of several raids in the horror that our (Demons, Demons 2, Ghost Son) will reach fame in Italy and abroad the saga television Fantaghirò. Precisely in its essence of television product for which there is a decent original copy of this DVD, the film was shown as part of its review of an older version from the Museo Nazionale del Cinema turin: several flaws, therefore, in audio and video. Yet it is these flaws that have contributed to add value to the work during the screening. The atmosphere of class, elegance, drama retro in the face of Daria Nicolodi, perfect representative of a female classical refinement. The story is a crescendo of emotions, feelings, together with a few thrills and a disenchanted romance. A project out of the ordinary, "sui generis", to be reassessed for a few good reasons.

"Chain Reaction / Ecology of the crime"
Federica Donati, an old countess, who is confined to a wheelchair, lives in a villa on a pristine bay on its own property. The refusal to Federica opposes those who would like to buy Bay to make it a tourist place is because of his brutal murder. It starts a chain of vicious crimes that involve several people, some residents in the bay, some recativisi looking for business, others stumbled there by accident ... We face the absolute masterpiece of Light. Violence exaggerated beyond belief, multi-faceted plot, surreal and unforgettable characters (above all, a Laura Betti that seems completely foreign to the rest of the film), photography vibrant, heart-pounding sequences. "Friday the 13th" and other works by the American slasher genre owe a lot to this magnificent work of art, above all, the mating sequence shown below:
13 corpses scattered in the film, which for the occasion was presented with the final edition DVD of this classic RaroVideo and the final novel commissioned by Light, in which children act out "Thus they learn to do bad "(one of many alternate titles of the film).
azzardatevi not normally declare fan of Bava Italian horror and if you have not seen this movie!
