So, it's the spring fever time when I have all sorts of things going, making it hard to even find time to read and comment on three reviews. At least it seems Jason is the only one doing anything right now, with him having the previous three reviews that've been written, one of which is guaranteed a place today! Oh well, least that means I'm not the only one either slacking or, in my case, overburdened by work. And I should be back on "productive mode" next week, at least in theory, since I'm wrapping up my big project while also working on this.

Thanks for the topic despite your current busy state, overdrive! Congratulations also to my secret nemesis, pickhut, who wins these things more often than not and totally doesn't have a target painted on his back now using invisible ink that I bought from a shady vendor in a dark back alley. Oh no, have I said too much?

Thanks for the RotW! Honestly wasn't expecting that, so very much appreciate that. Glad you took to that specific paragraph because, this might be surprising, that wasn't in the original "finished" draft of the review. Originally, the fourth paragraph was a list of issues and flaws, but after going over it again, the "complaints" felt so trivial that I completely removed it. I replaced it with what you see now, something more in tune with the flow of the game and the review.

Yeah, that was the second Bava giallo that'd I've seen. A few years back, I watched Bay of Blood/Twitch of the Death Nerve and that one was also a trip. Nearly everyone was a murderer at some point and there was this 15-20 minute period that was almost completely divorced from the main plot for a killer to dispatch four college-agers in ways that were totally swiped for use in Friday the 13th 2. Well, two of the three scenes were.

Ha, yeah. When I watched Bay of Blood for the first time, I was thinking, "Oh. Oh, Friday the 13th definitely took from this film."

And if Friday the 13th 4 had ended with Corey Feldman leaving Jason's body to abruptly kill his sister and then just walk off, Bay of Blood would have directly influenced TWO movies in the series!
