    Another good one from Mario Bava...
    Mario Bava is a master of moods and visuals, and the film, Operazione Paura, is no exception. It has all the imprints of a visual master at work, vivid and surreal atmospherics combined with a genuinely interesting storyline that unfolds slowly like an engaging gothic novel.

    For fans of Bava, this film is not to be missed. Check it out.
