Bye Bye GRUSELKRIMI: Italian Giallo Thriller with Nadja TILLER and Horst FRANK
17 March 2024
The Etruscan murders again: The West German Wallace series finally becomes an Italian Giallo

Italy, take over! With this pseudo-Bryan Edgar Wallace, the German shocker series is finally approaching its swansong. From now on, the yellow Italo shocker dominated the picture. And 1972 is the flagship year of the Italian giallo genre in general.

But before that, there's a real showdown: Etruscan graves, murdered lovers, an archaeologist (Alex CORD) and his ex-girlfriend (Samantha EGGAR), who is now married to riches. If only the London fog is missing, the death in Italy is more textile-free and bloodthirsty.

Oh yes, and then the German CINECITTA divo Horst FRANK as a homosexual choreography master with his dance ensemble and the wonderful GERMAN FILM AWARD winner Nadja TILLER with a shock wig.

If you're a Wallace and Giallo fan you should definitely see it, but it's not a masterpiece!
