Much like the movies this book has a groovy look, features lush colors and some nudity. We get a synopsis for each movies, a review, images and all the specs infos you need to know like the alternative titles, year of production, the director, the cast, running time and who and where was it released on DVD.
This beautiful book is printed on a high quality glossy paper, the layout is very nice and easy to read. This is another superb book from Midnight Media. A must for hard core giallo fans or for those wanting to discover some of the gems of Italian horror cinema. A second volume is planned!
