Black Sabbath (1963)
Because of the success of Black Sunday, American distributors re-titled Bava's I Tre volti della paura (1963) (or, The Three Faces of Fear), as Black Sabbath. Boris Karloff stars as a kind of host to this trilogy of short pieces, and also appears in the second one, "The Wurdalak." The other segments include "The Drop of Water," about a nurse hired to prepare a corpse for burial, and "The Telephone," set entirely in a basement apartment. Bava's striking use of colors and strange spaces is at its peak here. I'm not easily scared, but this one gave me chills. One of Bava's best. (Of course, the famous heavy metal band borrowed their name from this movie.) read more...

The Devil's Backbone (2001)
You wouldn't think that a wide-open adobe school out in the middle of the Spanish desert would be an ideal place to set a horror film. But writer/director Guillermo del Toro ( Cronos and Mimic) finds plenty of dark places and secrets there to provide a more than chilling picture with The Devil's Backbone, opening today in Bay Area theaters. read more...
