Bava and Eurocrime: An Interview with Umberto Lenzi (2014)
** 1/2 (out of 4)
If you bought Arrow Video's RABID DOGS then you might expect a featurette to cover that film. This is one of the featurettes on the disc and it has director Umberto Lenzi talking a lot about Euro Crime films but very little on the actual Mario Bava film. In fact, the majority of the nine-minute featurette has Lenzi talking about his own films, their influence and why real life crime in Italy led to all of these films. For the most part this is an entertaining featurette if you want to learn about Lenzi and some of his crime movies. If you're hoping to learn about the Bava film then, well, you might want to look elsewhere.
