What are your fave Gialli/Giallo's?

[Fearonsarms]

Someone asked if there could be a forum dedicated to giallo's/gialli. As that's not possible how about we discuss giallo's/gialli in this thread. For those who don't know what they are:
Giallo (Italian pronunciation: [ˈdʒallo], plural gialli) is an Italian 20th-century genre of literature and film, which in Italian indicates crime fiction and mystery. In the English language it refers to a genre similar to the French fantastique genre and includes elements of horror fiction and eroticism. The word "giallo" is Italian for "yellow" and stems from the origin of the genre in Italy as a series of cheap paperback mystery novels which all had trademark yellow covers.
To start off here are my favourites:

Tenebrae
Terror At The Opera
Deep Red
The Bird With The Crystal Plumage
Lizard In A Woman's Skin
Seven Notes In Black
The New York Ripper
Sleepless
Don't Torture A Duckling
Torso
The Black Belly Of The tarantula
Blood and Black Lace
A Bay Of Blood
The House With Laughing Windows
What Have They Done To Solange?
The Strange Case Of Mrs Wardh/Who's Next
Hatchet For The Honeymoon
Stage Fright
A Blade In The Dark
The Night Evelyn Came Out Of The Grave

and though they aren't really gialli but are usually considered to be:
The Perfume of The Lady In Black
The Killer Nun

The Night Evelyn Came Out Of The Grave

There's still quite a few I haven't seen anyone have any other recommendations or have any thoughts of this genre. I belive Masks (2011) is the most recent giallo are there any others?

I am quite new to this genre Fear, and have just started watching "THE NIGHT EVELYN CAME OUT OF THE GRAVE." I'm enjoying it , not riveting, but do you know much about this kind of stuff? Why is it not really considered giallo?

I made a mistake in my post and I listed it not as a giallo . It is a giallo (gloved killer, nasty murders and some surprising twists during the climax) but also has gothic horror elements. I guess it is a bit slow paced in the first half but the second half makes up for it which is why I love it.

Something like The Perfume Of The Lady In Black has giallo elements but is more of a horror film than anything else. I admit the lines become blurred as a lot of giallo's have slasher elements (like Stage Fright) but are really thrillers (like Death Walks On High Heels).

Well, I must confess my ignorance..I have heard the term Giallo quite often but didn't have a dickey as to what it was. Just want to make sure I am heading in the right direction and it sounds like I am. Thanks Fear.

Your welcome. It's a great sub-genre hope you enjoy the films if you get a chance to watch more.

What about some Argento films like Suspiria and Inferno?

These are are not gialli, they are supernatural horror films.

[Black_Cockatoo]

I consider them both, as they have the mystery and the young woman.
