First off, I am a fan of Italian dismay films of the 70’s and 80’s. I had always wanted to ogle Night Deny Murders, but it was never released in the United States making it nearly impossible to concept. Instead of buying a bootleg, which I concept about on several occasions, I waited for its official release. After receiving my DVD, I was pleasently surprised by how excellent the film was. Like most Italian flicks, they “rip-off” or “borrow” ideas from American films. Zombie borrowed from Dawn of the Dull, The Beyond borrowed from The Shimmering, Conquest borrowed from Conan the Barbarian, and Night Swear Murders borrows from Last House on The Left. So powerful in fact that it was released as Second House on the Left, Modern House on the Left, and Last End on the Night Boom in other parts of the world. Many of the narrative elements are borrowed from Craven’s film debut, including characters and situations. Even though it freely borrowed from Craven’s film, I actually came out liking this film better. First of all it has higher production values so the filmmakers were able to heighten the cinematography, and other such aspects. I also liked how Night Advise Murders was more disturbing and gritty. There were no awkward comedy moments like the ones note during Last House. There is more character development so you learn to like the two leading actresses more. In turn, since you like them better, you dislike the goons more for the violoations they did to them. The director inserts a lot of flair and style while making a truely likeable revenge/exploitation memoir that finally gets its unprejudiced release in the United States. I’ve been waiting a long time for this film and I greatly thank Blue Underground for releasing a this steller DVD. The record absolutely looks fabulous and the extra features were substantial. For fans of Italian anxiety, this DVD will not disappoint!
I agree that while this film borrowed heavily from Last House on the Left, Night State Murders is the better of the two. Helpful production values, salubrious cinematography, an Ennio Morricone accumulate, decent acting and a tight script, area Night Announce Murders above Last House and other films of this type. The first third of the film introduces the main characters and then gets them on a remark (the night before Christmas) that is tubby of unusual, quirky travelers - most of whom seem to be prone to indulging in one perversion or another. The “defilement” fraction of the film is a spirited, harrowing affair that escalates in viciousness before climaxing in a very brutal fashion. The final act does not live up to the scenes that precede it. While there is another escalation towards a violent outcome, the site seems to falter in a couple of spots, and the eventual retribution seems tame in comparison to the acts which have ignited it. The character who gets revenge is a surgeon, and when we first notice him he is cutting into people (using what looks like actual footage) so I was expecting a truly hideous and horrific conclusion. However, the director’s desire to preserve from glamorizing violence is probably why the ending feels somewhat restrained. As for the DVD itself, the image is pristine throughout most of the film, the sound quality is estimable and extras include an piquant interview with the director. However, one plight I have with the presentation is that the new Italian audio track with English subtitles is not an option, only an English dub is available. Level-headed, this is another stout release from Blue Underground and definitely a film which deserves a larger audience.
