Editor's Notes

Note

S-Tier Arrow Video 4K. Mario Bava invented the giallo template with this one in 1964, and the Arrow limited edition is the way to own it. The bold color lighting and set design are the whole appeal on disc. Copies have turned up at Disc Replay for around $39.99 USD, which is a good price for an Arrow LE. If you like Argento, this is the film he was ripping off.
