Comments: Giallo is one of those movies where the story surrounding it is much more interesting than what happens onscreen. (Why is it that when I typed that the first thing I thought of was Caligula?) Anyway, you are unable to currently buy this film from any distributor (of course, you can buy it second-hand), because apparently it slipped Mr. Argento's mind to pay Adrien Brody (not that he deserved to be paid much from his hugely uninspired performance). But then again, Argento probably deserved to be paid nothing as well for a completely uninspired film. Giallo wasn't terrible, but it certainly wasn't good (but I did rent it for free, so not all was lost).
