Welcome to 1975, the peak of Giallo goodness. Dario Argento was killing it. Deep Red also has one of the craziest scores and was my first foray into he insane sounds of Italian prog-rock Goblin. Blows my mind every time. I saw Jaws when I was a small child and I've had an enormous fear of sharks ever since. I tried surfing when I was a teenager in Miami but I saw a shark in the water not far from where I was and nearly drowned and that was it for surfing. Nope. Also, there may be some debate as to whether my third pick has spooky Satanic sacrifices, Warren Oates and Peter Fonda yelling obscenities and shooting shotguns at devil worshippers, and extended motorhome chases. It's good and spooky so give it a watch. xoxo
