  The Night Evelyn Came Out of the Grave 1971

  ★★★½ Watched 19 Mar 2025

  Giallo watch of 2025 #1.

  A Gothic Giallo where the film crew trashed a rented-out castle and when the owner came back he was so horrified at what they did that he kicked them out and they had to rush the shoot.

  Not as memorable as the best Giallo, but it does have enough twists and turns to keep you interested. At least an extra 1/2 star for the memorably ridiculous freeze-frame ending.

  ★★½ Watched 25 Mar 2025

  Imagine a story that is potentially earth-shattering, but actually ends up being about a rich kid internalizing a lie about stealing a Kit-Kat from the store when they were 10 years old.
