Episode 9: Giallo Fever with Clyde Folley

Starting this September, the Criterion Channel is running a series on giallo films. It includes thirteen films from The Girl Who Knew Too Much (1963) through Tenebrae (1982), covering a lot of the greatest hits of the genre with a few added bonus in the mix as well. Criterion video editor, Channel programmer, and all around lovely person Clyde Folley was kind enough to join me to talk about this series, which he programmed. We discuss the challenges of programming a series like this, the genre as a whole, our favorite films in the series, the magic of Nieves Navarro, our mutual love for In the Folds of the Flesh, and a lot of other unexpected topics (like Thai made for TV horror).
In the episode, Clyde mentions that he’s programming a Brad Dourif series in October at Anthology: you can learn more about that here. I also mention that I wrote an essay on the giallo subgenre to go along with the series which is now up on the Criterion site.
Here’s an obligatory reminder that my upcoming book Revolution in 35mm through PM Press is on its way out in the world this September! Thanks as always to Cinepunx and please rate, review, follow, and share!
