It's fucking awesome. There were a lot of threads on the films in it way back in the day (when it got released)...just do a search.
The Giallo Collection is worthwhile just for The Case Of The Bloody Iris. However, the other three gialli are solid examples of the genre which are very entertaining. I eagerly await a second Giallo Collection. So, buy the set.

I nearly hit upon this box set shortly after it was released but decided against it because of some negative feedback it was getting at the time by not being as great as everyone thought it could have been (that being 1 movie was excellent while the others were sub-par). I may have to look in on this set again before AB puts it on an OOP list. ;)

A second set would be great. Hopefully one or two Sergio Martino films get included. I'd love to see "The Strange Case of Signora Ward".
On a side note, how does "Seven Bloodstained Orchids" compare to the films in the Giallo Collection?

Well, I know I won't be picking this up. I've seen a couple of the films included and when I saw this set I was curious and all because I don't think they are the best examples in the genre. I think I've outgrown the giallo anyway, I haven't been able to sit through one in a while. I'd rather watch De Palma or something.

I have read these sorts of complaints as well. If you like gialli, this set will please you. All four films are worth watching. Some people are never satisfied. Keep in mind that most gialli have never been seen in the United States, so any releases of these films are of interest to fans of the genre.

This begs the question of why only the best examples of a genre should be released. It also implies the false premise that not being the best equates to being bad. All four films in this collection are good gialli.

I'm with mcchrist - this boxset is overrated. The films are all pretty good but not excellent. Perfect example is "Who saw Die?" which some rated as one of the best gialli ever but is simply average. I'm not a giallo expert but all of the Argento, Bava and Fulci gialli I've seen are way better than anything in the GC.
I am interested in seeing other gialli so how do people rate films like "Seven Bloostained Orchids", "Torso", "Autopsy", "Laughing Windows" and "Solange" rate compared to the GC?

If you like Giallos than this boxset is not overrated. If you like Gallos you will like this boxset. You can't compare the best Giallos made by Agento, Fulci etc.. to the ones in the boxset becuase they're not as good but they're still very enjoyable.

The Giallo Collection can be purchased online at Deep Discount DVD for $35.99, which is about $9.00 per movie. That is dirt cheap. Here is the URL:
http://www.deepdiscountdvd.com/dvd.cfm?itemID=ABD012156
Next time do your homework. This set is cheap. Also, if the money matters to you, then you are not really a giallo fan. There is nothing wrong with that. However, I believe that this discussion has been based on the presumption that we were all giallo fans and not casual viewers. It makes a difference.

Well dude, for someone who is unemplyed, that set is expensive dude! Seriously! And I've seen quite a few giallos over the years man, I've outgrown them. And that set doesn't sound the least bit tempting right now. If I had money to burn, I'd go for it, but $35.99 is alot of money these days and there's a shit load of other things that cost a hell of alot more than that that I drool over every time I'm in town.

In my opinion, "House With the Laughing Windows" and "Solange" are much better films than the ones in the Giallo Collection. "Torso" is along the same level but not quite as good as Windows and Solange. "Autopsy" is okay and I haven't watched "Seven Bloodstained Orchids" yet.
If I were to own only one of the films that you've mentioned, it would be Windows.
Andrew
03-26-2003, 04:50 PM
WINDOWS is very good, but again, do you really think it's a giallo?
SOLANGE is only okay in my book. Definitely not better than the flicks in the GC, but I bet I'm the only one who says that. TORSO is pretty cool and about on par if not a tad bit better. 7BO is very good as well. Hell they're all good! Buy the lot of 'em.

03-26-2003, 05:23 PM
You're right about Windows not really fitting the giallo style but of the films that were mentioned, I liked it the best.

How does someone who is unemployed afford to buy any DVD's? The set is inexpensive regardless of your financial situation. You simply don't value the collection. You should have just said that to begin with instead of complaining about the price.

That is true. And another thing that really bugs me with AB is the lack of english subtitles. Suppose I want to see Cat O'Nine Tails in Italian! Why do you include the soundtrack in the first place??? But of course, that's not the case with the giallo collection.
The italian soundtracks (along with subtitles) should be included but, that does not mean that the GIALLO COLLECTION is not recomended! However I understand mcchrist. 35$ is a bit too much to spend when things are tough...
I really doubt that many consumers care about Italian tracks on these DVD's. I certainly don't. If someone really wants Italian versions, he should buy Italian DVD's.

I'm a consumer and I want the original tracks. To me, the best way to watch a film is in its intended language. For example, "Suspiria" is an Italian movie but was meant to be in English. Also, IMO, some films lose their meanings when they are dubbed.
As for buying the Italian DVDs, that's ludicrous. The DVD format is capable of multilanguage support. Many films released in the USA include a Spanish and French track. Do people want them? Probably. My point is this: the Italian films should have the Italian track because that's how the film was originally intended... like it or not.

EPKJ, Italian DVD's (most of them at least) do not include english subtitles. American and British DVD's though that DO include a foreign lanuage track BUT NO ENGLISH SUBTITLES is plain bad humor to the consumers.

As long as they haven't told you it's backordered you'll get it soon. And dwatts - usually they tell you in big red letters (in your cart) when the product is out of stock. Sometimes they don't, and I'll admit, it does get annoying.

giallos are like star trek episodes to a treki, good or bad you always care for them. you love one you love them all some stinkers but fun to watch and that precise collection is and excellent one with great storys that go a little bit away from traditionnal killer its beatiful set that showed that giallos are interesting kind of genre movies that is almost disapering.

I have to agree. This is due to poor site and inventory support. These companies use outdated databases.

You are not many consumers, however, which is what I referred to in my post. Further, it is no more ludicrous to expect you to buy Italian DVD's, than it is for you to expect American companies to provide Italian language tracks for obscure genre films. Spanish is the largest second language in the United States and French is one of two national languages in Canada. Finally, the film was intended to have an English track when viewed by English speakers. That is why the producers dubbed the film.

EPKJ, I don't know if you realize this but gialli are ITALIAN films. In Italy, the national language is ITALIAN. Therefore, the ITALIAN track should exist. By the way, Chaostar, Italian subtitles should definitely be provided. Believe it or not, EPKJ, but DVD allows the option of selecting languages. Some people, like me, prefer to watch films in their original language: Italian, English, French, whatever. If that's ludicrous to you then I doubt that you are a true film fan... or at least you don't like "to read movies."
I know why films are dubbed but I am a purist and I believe that I'm not the only one that feels that way. To each his own, I guess. To me, bad dubbing can ruin an otherwise great film. My greatest example is "Don't Torture a Duckling". I'd like to convince you that my point is valid but I don't think it's possible.
By the way, you do realize that I'm talking about including original language tracks, not dubbing for every possible language?

This is not Italy. Region 1 does not contain Italy. So much for your stupid reply. The whole point of this debate was that it is ludicrous to expect a Region 1 company to provide Italian language tracks. That is self-evident. Italian is not a significant language in Region 1. Most people want to actually understand a film. No, I don't like reading films. Films are not intended to be read. No director in his right mind wants his audience reading rather than soaking up his visuals. Film is a visual medium. If I want to read a story, I will read a novel.

one of my favourite cartoon series as a kid was called The Mysterious Cities of Gold... reason i bring this up is because its a french cartoon but there was an english version that I obviously watched as a kid... now this series has not been shown on tv for ages and cant be bought anywhere... anywhere except france that is! theyve recently released it on dvd... but its french only (not even english subtitles).. now i think, hey how hard could it be for them to include an english track seeing as it already exists and the vast majority of the world speaks english and so theyd probably sell a lot more copies... but no they didnt... im sure there are some good reasons why companies dont include different language tracks on their discs and im sure its probably the same reason why most giallos dont contain an italian track

Woah dude! Mysterious Cities of Gold is a kickass series! i used to watch that along with Spartacus and the Sun beneath the Sea on Nickelodeon way back. I did manage to get a copy of MCoG on VHS (bootleg, of course) but can't find Spartacus anywhere...

BTW: I think Spartacus & The Sun Beneath the Sea was done by the same people. It took place in the center of the earth, and as you mentioned with MCOG, I can only remember bits and pieces. I know the main hero had a wristband that turned into a crossbow, the citizens of the center of the earth didn't have legs so they sort of bounced around, and they had constructed a female android (with legs) who I remember wore white, and had a theme song by Menudo... :rolleyes: Anyway, I remember liking it quite a bit.
EDIT: I've read about the sequel idea, and there was room for a sequel by the end of MCOG.

Not to stray away from the Nickelodeon topic, but........
I re-watched CASE OF THE BLOODY IRIS last night and really enjoyed it. I think it's a great flick. The assistant police officer looks exactly like Rob Schneider and that blonde chick who plays Marilyn is extremely sexy. This movie's got some comedy too (involving the aforementioned police officer), which was interesting. I really like this one though.

I always watch a movie in it's original language with subtitles, and if I see a movie often enough I'm even able to turn the subtitles off. It just makes the film seem much more natural, and as film is a medium of image and sound it is important to view the film just as the director did. Just as I'd rather watch The Evil Dead fullscreen and Evil Dead II widescreen, I would rather watch Ringu in Japanese and The Ring in English as that's how it was filmed.
But if I remember correctly, Suspiria is dubbed in every language as it was never filmed with sound. Some of the actors are speaking english, some are speaking German (as it was filmed in Germany) and some are speaking Italian all at the same time, the sound was just never recorded. It's difficult to watch any version of a movie on faith it seems, gotta do some digging to see what's the true version.

Honestly, if it has an english dub, I use that almost all the time. Don't care much about the "original langauge" as long as the dub job is good. The little bastard in Fulci movies is a case where the bastard is poorly dubbed.

Especially in "House By the Cemetery"... damn, that voice is annoying. I always prefer the original language but if the movie is filmed in the States (or any other English speaking country) then I watch the English dub because that was the intended language. It's all about intent.
Talking about subtitles vs. dubbing... I can't help but wonder how shitty "The House With the Laughing Windows" would have seemed if it was dubbed. To me, a great example of dubbing that almost ruins the movie is in "Case with the Bloody Iris" when the tenants see the dead body in the elevator... that's so badly done that it almost made me turn off my DVD player the first time that I saw it. Actually, that's the only reason that I haven't bought "Seven Bloodstained Orchids". Sometimes the only available version is the dubbed version, which I believe was the case with "Don't Torture a Duckling" so that's forgivable but I know that isn't the case with "The Bloodstained Shadow"... IMO, Anchor Bay let down the fans (illiterate or otherwise).

04-30-2003, 08:30 PM
It has nothing to do with intent for me. Nothing at all. I honestly don't think film is "intended" to be in any langauge, where it is filmed, and who is paying for it dictates (that's why Argento tends to be dubbed, he simply knows it's going to a lot of different markets.) A good film ought to work in any language - but of course, dubbing can't pay much :D

Dubbing can indeed suck. Thikning of this thread I was reminded of Germany. I am living in Germany right now, and every single film released is dubbed. The Simpsons is dubbed, James Bond is dubbed etc. Americans tend to make a whole bunch more about dubbing that europeans do - because dubbing is far more common here. Some Americans act as though a dubbed film is some strange thing, but here, hell, even the COMMERCIALS are dubbed. No big deal, and not a discussion point. Travelling rocks :)

dwatts, you're completely right about dubbing not being an issue in most of Europe. I'm Italian and whenever I visit I really notice the dubbing. I even had discussions about it and Italians don't care about dubbing because, like you said, everything is dubbed. However, that isn't to say that they're all like that. The bigger cities have cinemas that only play films in their original language (and subtitled). Film fans tend to prefer it that way.
I tend to enjoy watching a movie in the most natural format. I know that some movies were filmed without a track but many are definitely supposed to be in a certain language. I just think that DVD should provide the original language (with subtitles) as an alternative. After all, the format supports it.
dwatts
05-01-2003, 12:49 PM
Different argument really. I like dubbing pretty good when they took the time to do it right. Should a DVD give you the option? Oh yeah, definately. I think companies just get stuck in legalities.
