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).
