Search - Hatchet For the Honeymoon

Rosso Segno Della Folia, an Italian horror film written, directed and photographed by Mario Bava, is the bloody story of an impotent man who turns to murder to vent his frustrations. The designer and owner of a fashion design business (Stephen Forsyth), frustrated with his own sexual failure, murders the new brides who have modelled his fashions. When he decides to murder his wife, she becomes the ghost who will not leave him alone. Director Bava, who began his career as a cinematographer, while directing mostly low-budget horror films, has become a cult figure among some fans and critics who admire his unique and beautiful visual style and his often very amusing exaggeration of the cliches of the genre. Rosso Segno Della Folia, released in the United States as Hatchet for a Honeymoon is not the best of Mario Bava's work, but this above-average horror film is a must see for those who love the genre and admire stylish horror films. ~ Linda Rasmussen, All Movie Guide

Though the film is lighter fare for director Mario Bava (Black Sabbath, The Girl Who Knew Too Much, Blood and Black Lace), this disc does display his stylish flourishes quite nicely. It is presented in non-anamorphic widescreen with an aspect ratio of 1.66:1, and the English-dubbed audio is in Dolby Digital Mono. The print itself has some slight vertical lines visible but is otherwise perfect. Extra features include an excellent biography and filmography for the director and a still gallery with 17 black-and-white and color images. A strange and unusual film that is well presented. ~ A.R.
