Movie Review: Ubaldo Terzani's Horror Show (2010, Blu-ray)

Horror films centered on filmmakers or authors seem to be much more common nowadays. A couple recent examples that really aren’t too shabby have to be Wes Craven’s New Nightmare and Lucio Fulci’s Cat in the Brain. Raro Video has made their mark with releasing numerous Italian crime films, horror and even arthouse obscurities. We haven’t seen too many recent productions getting releases (Before 2000) until now. Ubaldo Terzani’s Horror Show takes the template similar to the titles mentioned above like Cat in the Brain ( which is actually shown on a TV in one character’s living room). Also, unlike Craven’s and Fulci’s films, our filmmaker protagonist is fictional.

Nothing could be better for horror film lovers than a horror film within a horror film.

The Blu-ray extras include a short film, screen tests and audio commentaries. DVD VERDICT calls Ubaldo Terzani Horror Show “smarter than your average horror picture and finishes with a bang that should satisfy most bloodhounds.”
