Episode 104 Mario Bava

Left for Dread

“You will never escape my vengeance, or of Satan's! My revenge will seek you out, and with the blood of your sons, and of their sons, and their sons, I will continue to live forever! They will restore me to life you now rob from me!" We have FINALLY arrived at Italian Horror! As you can imagine, Ry is VERY excited but is Chris? In this episode, your hosts start with Mario Bava’s Black Sunday from 1960 and Blood and Black Lace from 1964. We’re going over a little bit of the history surrounding film in Italy before Mussolini came to power and how that interrupted Italy’s trajectory within the horror genre. Finally, we get right into both Bava films and the clear impact he had on the genre. “Perhaps the sight of beauty makes him lose control of himself, so he kills.” Guide thy hand to join us on all our social media!
