A BAY OF BLOOD (TWITCH OF THE DEATH NERVE, aka REAZIONE A CATENA), 1971, International Media Films, 84 min. Dir. Mario Bava. This is the great-granddaddy of slasher movies, a movie that profoundly influenced late 1970s and 1980s horror, from all the Italian gialli that came afterwards to the FRIDAY THE 13TH franchise. Thirteen oversexed Italians, most of them concerned with securing the land rights to the remote, rural bay of the title, slaughter each other in amazingly inventive ways. (English dubbed print.)
FOUR TIMES THAT NIGHT (QUANTE VOLTE … QUELLA NOTTE), 1972, International Media Films, 83 min. Director Mario Bava’s tongue-in-cheek, teasingly erotic take on Akira Kurosawa’s RASHOMON chronicles various versions of what really happened on libertine Brett Halsey’s date with lovely firebrand Daniela Giordano.
