Giallo a Venezia

Giallo a Venezia is a 1979 Italian giallo film directed by Mario Landi. The film released on December 31, 1979 in Italy and starred Leonora Fani. It is known primarily for its extremely graphic scenes of gore, including a womans leg being slowly sawed off with a long knife.

Moviefone gave a mixed review for the film, saying that it is one worth seeing for fans of the subgenre but that overall it was simply not on par with most of the Italian greats. In the book Italian Horror Film Directors one critic noted that Giallo a Venezia is a perfect example of how a filmmaker can go too far in his quest to achieve the perfect synthesis of horror and repulsion.deserves or perhaps does not deserve to be remembered as one of the most idiotic Italian thrillers ever made, a collage of softporn sequences and dismemberments of rare brutality that fall into the void, in a childish attempt to astonish. ........
