A Lizard in a Woman's Skin


Saw a Lizard in a Woman's Skin a short while ago, and then this, and the two start off similar, with the weird opening dream sequences and paranoid beautiful female lead.

Very true. Personally I much prefer this film to 'LIAWS', even if 'Lizard' is widely regarded as being a superior giallo film. And Edwige Fenech absolutely blows Florinda Balkan far away in the gorgeous looks department. But I will say Balkan is most likely the better actress of the two.

Both of those dream sequences are such wonderfully bizarre and beautifully crafted creations. The one in 'All The Colors of The Dark' always came off as being some eerily bizarre scene in a David Lynch film to me. Certainly hats off to both Martino and Fulci for creating some of the most extraordinarily surreal moments in all of giallo cinema in both these dream sequences.
