Yes ,but the production is Italian so I prefer the Italian audio,even though it looks and it is a dub

If the cast of the film is either mostly English/American or English speaking, I always prefer the English dub but, if it is an international cast with someone speaking English to someone replying in Italian, I go with the Italian dub (if there is one).

It seems to make more sense and fits with the synchronisation and tone of whichever giallo I'm watching – Deep Red isn't the same with David Hemmings dubbed in Italian!

I always seem to spend the first fifteen minutes of any Italian film playing round with the soundtracks to see which fits best.

I always try to watch a film in its original language, which seems to sometimes be hard to figure out with gialli. But as rule of thumb, I just try to watch the best dubbing. With the often international cast, there's always someone dubbed anyway. English dubbing usually sucks, so unless it's an all-american cast I go with the Italian dubbing which is usually so much better. I don't know why americans don't know how to dub. At least it makes for fun Kung Fu film experiences. I even watched a giallo in Spanish for some reason and the dubbing was pretty good.
