There's a right way to approach a film genre and then there's the Doomed Moviethon way. Richard Glenn Schmidt dove into the giallo by having weekend-long moviethons with sometimes up to 20 films crammed into a very short amount of time. Armed with only a very understanding wife, a disturbing amount of caffeine, and a seemingly limitless supply of junk food, Richard pushed his eyes and mind to the brink of madness and beyond. Seven years in the making, Giallo Meltdown: A Moviethon Diary lovingly covers 215 films in thirteen chapters with all the black-gloved killers, fashion models, gay stereotypes, psychosexual subplots, hooker bonfires, inheritance schemes, and gallons of fluorescent blood that the giallo is known for.
