Trivia
Due to the film's low budget Mario Bava mounted the camera on a child's wagon and used it for tracking shots.

Goofs
In one English-dubbed print, the handwritten message of the killer is in German.

Quotes
Inspector Sylvester: Perhaps the sight of beauty makes him lose control of himself, so he kills.

Alternate versions
The original European version opened with a title sequence in which the camera focuses on each cast member as their name appears on the screen. The US distributors, Lawrence Woolner and Bernard Woolner, hired Filmation Studios to create a new title sequence featuring a montage of mannequins and skulls. The original title sequence has been restored on VCI Home Video's DVD release. The original US release removed a shot of the bathwater turning blood red in Claude Dantes' death scene. This shot was seen in the montage of scenes used in Matador (1986), and has been restored on VCI Home Video's DVD release.

Stylish Italian Giallo!

My Rating : 7/10

'Blood and Black Lace' has all the spice and style I like in slashers/thrillers. Giallo filmmaking at its apex.

This is some damn fine atmospheric murder mystery filmed in true Mario Bava style.

Superb. Love this movie!
