Black Sabbath
I tre volti della paura
Three tales of supernatural horror include a woman plagued by threatening phone calls, a family targeted by vampiric monsters, and a deceased medium who wreaks havoc upon the living.
Why it matters
Three chilling vignettes from Mario Bava that helped define the giallo and anthology horror traditions with striking style and eerie atmosphere.
- Boris Karloff’s graveyard narration sets a gothic tone that bridges classic Universal horror with Italian flair.
- Early example of Bava’s masterful use of color and shadow to conjure dread without relying on gore.
- The looming menace of unseen forces—cursed objects, vampiric threats, and restless spirits—prefigures key giallo motifs.
- Perfect for fans of vintage anthology horror and those interested in the roots of European supernatural cinema.
