Rosso Sangue (1981)


Cinema 80
Directed by Joe D'Amato
My rating: 1.5 stars out of 4
IMDb Wikipedia
(DVD, Mya Communication)

While being pursued by a priest, George Eastman impales himself on a fence. Despite his grave injury, he recovers quickly in a hospital due to the ability of his blood to coagulate more quickly than normal. After killing his nurse for no good reason, he escapes from the hospital and is almost run over by a hit and run driver. He survives, of course, but turns up at the driver's house to kill his family in various gruesome ways. Gore is the name of the game here, as there is almost no plot, or suspense, or acting for that matter. Eastman, wearing jeans and a t shirt, is just boring, and has little to no dialogue. His last victim, a young girl in traction, gets the last laugh though, leading to a memorable final image.
