Watchable nonsense delivers a few thrills and chills
|
With its lounge-lizard music, unclad beauties, bursts of violence, and potboiler plot, "The Night Evelyn Came Out of the Grave" is a respectable (if that's the right word) example of Italy's "giallo" genre. Odd plot, though: the villain isn't the rich owner of the manor who lures young women to his dungeon and kills them, but the opportunists around him who try to manipulate the situation to get control of the guy's wealth.
From these Amazon reviews, it's clear there are several DVDs of this movie out there. For what it's worth, mine featured a nice, crisp, widescreen image, an Italian soundrack with subtitles, and several extras. So there is at least one decent DVD of this movie available for your viewing pleasure.
But, be warned (minor spoiler to follow)... even coming from a genre not known for its subtlety, you really get some over the top stuff here. The barrel of sulfuric acid that shows up in the last minute of the movie is a particular hoot. The scene had everything but the words "Acme Sulfuric Acid Comapny" on the side of the barrel and the villain doing an exaggerated "oops" double take as he pitches headlong into it.
But, in the end, hey, the movie's fun. And that's all that counts.
