Hatchet For The Honeymoon [Il rosso segno della follia]


Some of Bava’s finest camera trickery is put to work in this tale of a psychopath murdering a series of beautiful young brides. The fact that it’s narrated by the murderer and his identity is never hidden means that not only was Bava already subverting the Giallo before it had all really kicked off but he also managed to prefigure American Psycho. More evidence of the man’s undersung genius.
