Honestly, the only Italian film I have seen is Dario Argento's Sleepless. And I really enjoyed that. The murder with the French horn was particulalry horrendous and disturbing. But there are films like these that take themselves seriously, even though they are gory. It had a good plot, plenty of fine twists and suspense ... but it wasn't scary. I really can't stand a film that is so incredibly stupid because all of the brains behind the project went into making the guts look real. And most of the time, even that doesn't work. But, there are fans of these films! There are people who will watch the same story over and over and over again, just to see the blood (*ahem* Friday the 13th series). I just don't get it.
