Season’s Greetings, everyone! ’Tis the season to be busy and you’ll stay that way snatching up Blu-rays if Severin Films has anything to say about it. Here are two recent releases to consider:
Werewolf in a Girls' Dormitory (1961): It’s an early giallo! No, it’s a monster movie! Actually, it’s both. Werewolf in a Girls’ Dormitory is a stone-cold gas; beautiful, evocative photography from Renato Del Frate (The Holy Nun) and solid direction by Paolo Heusch (Violent Life) highlight this tale of a reform school for girls that has enough red herrings and blackmail amongst its tale of lycanthropic dread. When a new teacher (Carl Schell – The Blue Max) arrives at the school, some of the girls begin to turn up dead, and are thought to have arrived at their station due to wolf attacks.

Armando Trovajoli, known for his work on many Sophia Loren films and more recently, the theme music to Curb Your Enthusiasm, passed away last week at the age of 95.
Trovajoli’s contribution to the horror genre can be heard in Bava’s supremely weird sword and sandal epic Hercules in the Haunted World, the Bava-produced Atom Age Vampire, and Paolo Heusch’s Werewolf in a Girls' Dormitory.
