The first half of Hatchet for the Honeymoon was incredibly and painfully slow, but once the little woman pushes him too far it picks up. American Psycho definitely borrows liberally from this movie and Mario Bava paints wonderful images with lighting after his major studio stint (Danger: Diabolik) didn't work out to his liking. Ultimately, this is a rehash of Blood and Black Lace only not as fun--although Forsyth watching Bava's Black Sunday on TV was amusing.

MCT:November 3, 2007Great film. Nice pace which is rare for Italian horror, good dialog, brilliantly shot (as if it wouldn't be with Bava on both directing and cinematography). And intentionally funny, Bava actually referencing himself was a shock, it happens all the time now but I doubt it happened very often back in the day. I loved how John tried to use Black Sabbath to cover up his murder.
American Psycho borrowed heavily from this one. -

On second viewing, I really can chalk my blasé opinion up to the poor transfer that I have. in terms of composition, this is a great film, both visually, and in terms of writing. Unfortunately I have not seen a clean, restored transfer, so I cannot accurately comment on the color... though I can only imagine, based on how excellent even my washed out copy looks.

Classic horror/thriller. I am sure these days that it wouldn't carry water - but it was pretty daring back in the day.

More of a dark comedy from Bava this time around, Hatchet is wild and very cool with all kinds of interesting use of color and camera moves.
