I don't believe I've seen 'In the Folds of the Flesh', I'll have to check it out!

Edit: Scratch that, I have actually lol.

Thanks for all the suggestions , some of these sound really interesting . I have the following :

• Torso
• Forbidden photos
• Who saw her die?
• Bloodstained shadow
• Fifth cord
• Strip nude
• Bay of blood
• Pyjama girl case
• Killer nun - not sure if this is classed as a giallo?
• Blade in the dark
• Dial help
• Nothing underneath
• Fatal frames
• Hatchet for the honeymoon

I thought strip nude,dial help and fatal frames were pretty poor examples, my favourites so far being most of the Argento stuff , blade in the dark,torso and bay of blood. Have to say in my opinion none of the above come close to Deep Red and Bird With the Crystal Plumage or Tenebrae.

Lucio Fulci's Lizard in a Woman's Skin, Don't Torture a Duckling, and Seven Notes in Black/The Psychic.

Black Belly of the Tarantula is another good one.

I have Dont Torture & Strange Vice currently on order so will look forward to these,thanks.

There is great pleasure to be had in the genre, but it can be a lifelong addiction tho

I saw Blood and Black Lace years ago, which is the best dvd/blu version to buy?
I just bought the Dark Side giallo book of the same name, was surprised at how many giallo films there are.
