Mondo Film These aren't everyone's cup of tea but I'm a huge fan of Italian Mondo, particularly the works of Italian originators Jacopetti & Prosperi. Thankfully their filmography is widely available on a few different labels, though arguably the definitive releases are by Blue Underground and Camera Obscura (for Mondo Candido). Later additions to the Italian Mondo catalogue by the Castiglioni bros and Climati have not really seen the light of day on DVD with the exception of a few Japanese/eastern releases in the early 2000s and a few cut versions of Savage Man, Savage Beast (also a Thai uncut DVD release I believe). Of course I'd like to be proved wrong, anyone know of any other releases that have slipped under the radar? |
While Mondo Candido isn't really a mondo film,Camera Obscura did release Bruno Mattei's Libido Mania. ;) |

Yeah it's a bit like the duo's Goodbye Uncle Tom (1971),also not really a mondo film,in some aspects. Are you looking for other Italian mondo films on dvd? |

Ah Death in Haiti,I think you'll like it as it's part travelogue,part crime thriller and part whodunnit. ;) |

I mostly like it for Strindberg and the travelogue part,it's more of a crime thriller than a giallo imho. ;) Btw are you looking for more Italian mondo on dvd? I was also wondering if you've ever seen http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0062063/ ? |
