Product Description

Bond-girl Claudine Auger stars in cult director Mario Bava's influential precursor to the contemporary slasher movie. When an old heiress is murdered, thirteen candidates arrive in hope of inheriting her fortune and instead come face-to-face with a dedicated serial killer. Meanwhile, a gaggle of beach-partying hippies are murdered in a variety of grisly manners.

3.0 out of 5 starstweak of the blu nerve
By Zaroff on 5 Mar. 2015
Format: Blu-ray Verified Purchase
Arrow Blu-ray. A beautiful, elegant Bava film. Is there any other kind?...violence so frequent, so energetic, so in the face that it becomes a black comedy in mere moments, edited with panache, a verve for the macabre. But the blu ray, for all it's sharpness and crisp detail in abundance, is distinctly too bright, beneath a sheen of heightened light levels regardless of the scenario in question. The black levels are such that almost all the interior shots where blacks & solid shadows are prominent (and these scenes are frequent throughout) particularly in the foreground, are all awash with brightness & are greyed out. So although you get bright detail for close-ups and graphic moments, the black areas are deadened with light. Which to me, undermines the whole. The superb soundtrack and the eye of Bava saves the blu ray from being a waste of an upgrade. The italian version and the extras compensate.

The italian print, though of lower grainier and non HD quality, has on this blu ray a superior denser level of black, and dare i say, fuller mono sound. Apparently the film was shot english and italian as separate entities, and the italian certainly feels more natural in fluidity of dialogue and the tempo overall.The one obvious flaw with the italian print is that the contrast is actually too high, and whites tend to become burning areas of blur. A middle ground print that exemplifies the black solids and the even temper of the other colours would be welcomed.

The usual dubbed mono soundtrack is very quiet or loud. The italian track on the italian print has occasional roughness or treble issues but is more pert, apparent than the american one. Extras and other variations of covers are appealing add ons, the interviews insightful, the Edgar Wright appreciation may attract newer fans.Read more ›

5.0 out of 5 starsThe origins of the body-count slasher?
By dm8110 on 17 Dec. 2010
Format: Blu-ray Verified Purchase
To my knowledge there is no other movie before (and for many years after, until Friday the 13nth) totalling 13 murders. I am not giving anything away, the number is on the box so you will notice it! Several early 80s slasher movies borrowed this kind of narrative, others, Friday the 13nth, chunked out a whole scene.

What sets this one apart from the others, is that there is no "maniac" running loose. This makes a huge difference in characterisation. And of course much more compelling. The plot and the motive are more in line with some classic narratives and early gialli, rather than the obsessive themes of Argento, but the very graphic gore makes the difference.

Arrow's release is great value for it's price. You get an English HD version and the Italian non-HD version. There is a difference of opinion regarding the color of the English version, not being as saturated as to instantly strike as a Bava movie, but since you also get the Italian version which allegedly is more authentic, 4 reversible covers, two of which are spectacular (personally i do not like the one shown, but that's my opinion) i am guessing it will be the European release to get for quite a while. An Italian company has also released this in the past, but they don't do Blu-ray yet.

A long special feature regarding the writer was very interesting, not so much for his work (LOL!), but as to the insider info on 3 prominent directors (Bava, Argento, Fulci). Also, subtitles are included for both movies and the features, which was a true fan service for those who are non-native English speakers. Thank you!

4.0 out of 5 starsBay of Blood
By Hell House on 16 Jun. 2005
Format: DVD Verified Purchase
A truly inspired piece of cinema from the mighty Mario Bava. This film set the standards for Halloween, Friday 13th and pretty much every horror film after. Bay of Blood is the original, ultimate stalk and slasher experience. Check it out!Also, which is funny for a film like this, the plot is fantastic and actually took me 2 views to work out what was happening. Great fun if you love horror. And the cinematography is beautiful.

2.0 out of 5 starsFar from Bava's finest hour
By Trevor Willsmer HALL OF FAMETOP 50 REVIEWER on 20 Sept. 2010
Format: DVD
NB: As is their wont, Amazon have bundled together the reviews for various editions and formats of this title. This review refers to Anchor Bay's US NTSC DVD.

A Bay of Blood aka Twitch of the Death Nerve is something of an endurance feat that seems more interesting for its influence on the splatter movie genre (in particular the Friday the 13th series) than as a film. It's light on plot for a giallo, being little more than a collection of gruesome sudden deaths, some, like the opening murder of a woman in a wheelchair, imaginative, others less so, all related to various unpleasant characters out to control the rather grotty looking bay of the title to either redevelop it or preserve its natural beauty. The plot is largely thrown away in a series of flashbacks in the last couple of reels, but seems little more than an excuse for the killings, which are exercised with surprisingly little atmosphere: until the finale there's no real build up or suspense, just multiple murders from multiple murderers. There's also surprisingly little flair to it all, leaving a film that's not much better than the very average splatter movie. Still, at least there's some fun to be had from a duplicitous lawyer being dubbed in the American version by someone doing what sounds like a Gregory Peck impersonation.
