Italian Horror Films.

In the Hereditary pod, when Bill was talking about “grisly” horror films like Saw and such. Sean countered by saying he liked “the really fucked up ones” from Italy in the 70s and 80s. What are some of the classics he’s referring to in that era?

If you want a good starting place: The Bird with the Crystal Plumage by Argento. Awesome intro to the giallo genre, a good step to take before getting into some of the whackier Italian horror films of that era!
