Mountain of the Cannibal God starts off well, but it loses it's way towards the end (just my opinion of course, I know some will disagree) All the Colors of the Dark is a cracking giallo, with both Edwige Fenech and Susan Scott. Big Alligator River is silly but a lot of fun and Man Called Blade is an enjoyable spaghetti western. My fave Martino film is 2019: After the Fall of New York. My least favourite is Violent Professionals. Last edited by Pete; 21st February 2010 at 06:48 PM. |

Bar for the senseless animal footage I enjoyed Mountain too. Definitely one of the better cannibal flicks and enjoyable all the way through.

I have to agree with you on ATCOTD though loops; a great giallo. |

You should get them BE, I reckon you will like them. I have only seen 3 of Martino's gialli (the other two beiong Case of the Scorpions Tail and Torso) and ATCOTD is the best of the three. I was going to buy the NO Shame editions of his other giallo's but I waited too long and now they are going for ridiculous prices. (I'm sure MYA will re-issue them) |

Yeah, those NoShame releases are pretty expensive... still, MYA has already released Mrs Wardh as Blade of the Ripper, and I'm almost positive Your Vice will follow. I think they are also planning to re-release Scorpion's Tail too. |

I noticed MYA had put out Mrs Wardh and I think I best order it now and avoid the risk of having to pay over the odd's in the future. I might uprade to a new edition of Scorpions Tail, the german dvd isn't very good. |

It's the same with the Post Apocalyptic genre really. There's only a handful of them I've seen. Before getting The Bronx Warriors tin I hadn't seen New Barbarians, but on watching it - I loved it! So much so that I watched it agian straight after with the awesome fact track. I'm sure I'd be the same with Spaghetti's - it's just having the time to watch some amongst the hundreds of other films I have on the to-watch pile... Yeah, the German Scorpion is pretty poor transfer-wise, but the artwork is great! I also have the NoShame Scorpion, though and the print is great. Well worth getting; if you can find it cheap enough. MYA will probably use the existing NoShame print for their new release, however it will probably be without the extras. |

I've seen the No Shame dvd of Scorpions Tale going for decent prices, in fact theres one on ebay @ the mo for £8. Well worth picking up. I just hope MYA do release Your Vice... as I stupidly never got the No Shame release before it started going for silly money |

I'm something of a Martino fan. I have the following so far: - Torso Gambling City Case of the Scorpion's Tail All the Colors of the Dark Your Vice Is a Locked Room and Only I Have the Key Violent Professionals A Man Called Blade The Mountain of the Cannibal God Island of Fishmen Big Alligator River Scorpion with Two Tails 2019: After the Fall of New York Someone should release a decent version of Hands of Steel on DVD! *hint hint* |
