Films cycle “Mario Bava, Master of Terror”

Mario Bava

A virtuoso of fetishism, color, and cinematic thrills, Mario Bava was in the 50s and 60s a pioneer of popular genre cinema, offering seminal titles to apocalyptic science fiction, gothic horror, and—perhaps most notably—giallo, the Italian thriller genre he is credited with inventing. The filmmaker’s work blends suspense, eroticism, and humor, guided by a formalism that is both dazzling and venomous.
