Anita Strindberg inThe Case of the Scorpion's Tail (1971), showing some trademarks of thegiallo genre: a black-gloved killer's POV, vivid colour and a vulnerable young womanThis is a list ofgiallo films, a genre of Italian-producedmurder mystery film blending the atmosphere and suspense of thethriller genre with elements of horror (such as slasher violence) and eroticism.
Gialli often feature a number of distinctive plot elements, such as a mysterious killer (often dressed in a disguise and wearing black gloves) whose identity is revealed in the climax.
The genre developed in the mid-to-late 1960s, peaked in popularity during the 1970s, and subsequently declined in commercial mainstream filmmaking over the next few decades, though examples continue to be produced. It was a predecessor to, and had significant influence on, the laterslasher film genre.[ 1]
