Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Classic early Bava
This five early films show Bava developing from B&W - which he does in a really eerie way - to his first colour projects. There are some fine chills in these movies, which include a great turn from Boris Karloff.

These are psychologically intense in many places and all are well worth seeing. This is a fantastic set.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Very nice indeed!
Bought this out of curiosity. I have to say I enjoyed every second of this set. The mood in the films is great and just discovering a talent like this is a thrill. Recommended for anyone curious.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Only two of these classics have english soundtracks
Contrary to the otherwise excellent review by Jeremy - only Black Sunday and Knives of the Avenger have english soundtracks... the cases do list the languages for the movies as 'English and Italian' but I think the english part only applies to the Alan Jones introductions. Still an excellent set - well worth purchasing if you have not seen any Bava movies before.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Super Mario!!!
This is a superb collection of five early films from the Italian master of the macabre, Mario Bava.

First up is The Mask Of Satan (a.k.a. Black Sunday) which is about a witch and vampiress who is burnt at the stake and then resurrected, giving her the opportunity for revenge.

An extremely spooky atmosphere pervades through the entire film and the opening scene is particularly memorable.

Black Sabbath (a.k.a. I tre volti della paura - The Three Faces Of Fear) consists of three creepy stories, the most famous of which is `The Wurdalak' story - a vampire tale starring the late great Boris Karloff. This ... Read More:
