Italian film director associated with 1970s giallo; directed L'Etrusco Uccide Ancora (1972).

According to the available review, L'Etrusco Uccide Ancora (1972) blends supernatural and rational elements, uses soundtrack and music as a fear-triggering device, features unusually violent murders often in daylight, and draws on Etruscan motifs and archaeological settings near Spoleto.

The available review situates Armando Crispino's L'Etrusco Uccide Ancora (1972) within the 1970s Italian giallo wave, praising its blend of supernatural and rational elements, dreamlike staging and soundtrack use. The film is noted for violent, often daylight murders and some low-budget weaknesses. Recommended for giallo enthusiasts.

For:Fans of Italian genre cinema, giallo enthusiasts, film students and researchers of 1970s European thrillers

 The Italian '70s giallo was not just Dario Argento, as many know, but saw a considerable number of directors, from diverse backgrounds and settings, engaging with a subgenre, or rather a language, that ensured maximum expressive freedom in the choice of locations, in photography, in the creation of real atmospheres, perhaps leaving actor direction in the background and, notably, making the employment of big names secondary, in favor of character actors, young debutants, or secondary figures, without significant additional costs for the production companies.
