Good trilogy from Mario and Lamberto Bava at a great price!!
This triple feature of "Midnight Movies Volume 1" is a great introduction to Mario Bava's last film SHOCK and two of his son's films A BLADE IN THE DARK and MACABRE. This is Blue Underground's re-packaging the original Anchor Bay catalog titles. All three movies are on a seperate disc with its own special features (carried over from past DVD releases). I won't go into film synopsis here, I am reviewing the DVD set and NOT the movies. These three movies aren't the two directors' best anyway. I got this set for SHOCK alone, being a huge Mario Bava fan. The other two films are alright in this set. The three films are presented in anamorphic widescreen 1.85 that is passable for these low budget Italian horror films. Seems Blue Underground won't remaster these older titles, so this will have to do. Like I said, these aren't the greatest films in Italian horror, but the three are pretty good to have in one set. Plus, if you are not familiar with Lamberto Bava's work, this will get you...
