Bava's films ooze with cool style, none moreso than this. An influential feast for the eyes (and ears, courtesy of Morricone), Diabolik is a cross between Bond and Batman, if both were bad guys. Set your logic aside and ignore the usual bad Italian dubbing, 'cause you're in for a sumptuous, kitschy, over-the-top treat.
I've only just seen it for the first time, but it's already earned a spot on my list of favorite films. Gorgeous to look at, full of atmosphere, it's like a dark and moody Japanese fairytale. Beautiful.
This brought nothing new to the table. As usual, the American remake is aimed at people who don't like subtitles or subtlety. Even the CGI was fake-looking and distracting. Sure, the kids did a good job, and it could've been a lot worse, but that's not exactly a ringing endorsement.
It's not a laugh riot, granted, and it probably shouldn't be on a comedy list, but it's still a solid mystery/thriller with elements of comedy and romance.
Yeah, major glitches happening with the search and anticipated results. Many titles aren't even showing up in search results, just the a.k.a.s. Try searching for "Return of the Living Dead" and look at what happens.

Possibly the greatest black comedy of all time. Dry humor as only the British can do it.Movie comment on The Parallax View
MrE2Me
The ultimate paranoid thriller. A classic.Movie comment on Airplane II: The Sequel
MrE2Me
I do not understand how this made it onto the "greatest sequels" list. It's terrible by any standard, but especially compared to the first film.Movie comment on I tre volti della paura
MrE2Me
Bava's work deserves to be on more than just the horror list.Movie comment on Super Troopers

Am I the only person who didn't find this the least bit funny? I was struggling to keep my eyes open the whole time.Movie comment on Future-Kill

The only good thing about this turkey is H.R. Giger's poster art.http://awkwardpress.com/wp-content/uploads/future_kill_poster_01.jpg

Brutal, stark, honest; the opposite of a romantic comedy. A rom-trag?Movie comment on After Hours
MrE2Me
Scorsese channeling David Lynch. A fast-paced, wacky cinematic head trip.Movie comment on Suna no onna

No such thing as "too gothic."I've only just seen it for the first time, but it's already earned a spot on my list of favorite films. Gorgeous to look at, full of atmosphere, it's like a dark and moody Japanese fairytale. Beautiful.

The backgrounds in some of the shots are eerily realistic.Movie comment on Peace on Earth
