Unfortunately, there hasn't been much that I would consider modern American giallo. To me, half of what makes giallo giallo is that the story is so much of a mystery, but with little horror kickers (via Se7en).

I guess the problem is that Giallo isn't as appreciated here in America as it should be. Sadly, it's kind of a lost genre.

As a good man once told me, most American producers "wouldn't know giallo from Jell-O."


I'll think it over...it's hard to stay off of the Argento and Bava tracks.
