Dios salve a Serena Grandi.......2006-11-08

better than expected.......2006-05-28

I bought this in a 3-pack of movies, and this was surprisingly good. Not alot of on-screen murders, but some good suspense makes it worth a watch on a rainy day or something. the murders we get to see are a pitchfork to the chest and a cleverly carried-out bee attack including something better than honey. pretty much nudity here, but all models and implants. :)

Well worth it for giallo fans.......2004-03-04

Here's a textbook example of 80's Italian giallo film. For those who aren't familiar with the term, giallo is basically an Italian horror/suspense movie in the "whodunit" murder vein. Many of the 70's giallo were a huge influence on the "slasher" film as we know it today. They usually feature lots of blood and generally beautiful women are the victims; in this respect Delirium is no exception.

Walking in on the movie you might think you're watching a softcore skin flick. In fact, the model "Gioia" (her name is dubbed in as Gloria) who is the focus of the mysterious stalker's obsession makes her living posing for nudie magazines. We are treated to numerous shots that feature lead actress Serena Grandi in various stages of undress, which reveal her "grande" assets.

The plot will keep you guessing as far as the killer's identity. Of course, lots of red herrings are dropped to mislead you and keep things interesting. Some interesting shots represent the killer's point of view by actually showing how he (she?) mentally pictures his victims. Whenever things slow down murder or plot wise, we are treated to more skin. It's a win/win situation.

This was directed by Lamberto Bava, son of the famous Italian director Mario Bava. Other Lamberto Bava films worth watching are the excellent 80's giallo A Blade in the Dark and the zombie-style gorefests Demons and Demons 2.

Ain't life "Grandi"..........2004-01-23

Starring Serena Grandi, (AKA the Dolly Parton of Italy) this decent giallo is nice to watch. Somewhat plodding, the dubbing
is downright hysterical, but there is some real good surrealism
as seen through the eyes of the killer. His victims seem to mutate into some kind of "human insectoids" before they're offed.
Basic premise-the stunning Ms. Grandi runs a European skin mag
whose models are being terminated and the pictures of their decrepit corpses are being sent back to her. (sure-your circulation will improve but...) The pictures usually get
intercepted by Daria (Mrs. D. Argento) Nicolodi who, in turn,
just screams and cries. (hey...no one said she'd ever win any
statues for her acting ability)
And the MAIN reason for the 4 stars-Serena Grandi. Constantly
shown in various states of undress or in super-hot '80's fashions, she has to be the most spectacular-looking of all
Italian "giallo" actresses. Boy...I'd crawl on broken glass for
just one...SERENA- if you ever read this review, e-Mail me.
I'd shower more gifts on ya that you'd be believing in Santa
Claus again.

To watch once..........2002-03-13

have you ever seen "Lamberto Bava`s Blade in the dark" (very good movie for thriller fans). Well... this "foto di gioia" tried to get the same attention... failing.
The movie is not really bad, some murder scenes are quite good (bad acting maybe?) but like Dario Argento said to me once "Why should i make a movie if it is going to be forgettable? Its a waste of time!".
If you have a free afternoon to spend you can always watch it :)
