Title: KIDNAPPED aka RABID DOGS (1974)
Post by: RCMerchant on March 07, 2014, 09:15:22 PM
DAM.
You think you know Mario Bava.
You've seen BLACK SUNDAY,KILL,BABY KILL,his gory giallos-
THIS is Bava what might have been if he lived to make more-
a crime film that ranks up their with LAST HOUSE ON THE LEFT for sheer horror-but has much more style than Wes Craven.Out does Tarintino-is claustrophobic,sick,and a twist ending you wont dam believe-
I wont give it away-just-just watch it!
I saw it on Netflix!
The BEST movie Ive seen this year!
I cant post any clips-just see it if you can!!!

Who knew????  Bava was on his way to becoming one of the BEST film makers EVER-(he still is,in my book).

RC's right, this is a great movie. Maybe Bava's 2nd best, after BLACK SUNDAY? Almost all of it takes place in a car, and although there are a few violent/sadistic scenes it works because of the tension that builds up through dialogue as the kidnap victims try to figure a way out, trying to play the rational leader off against his psychopathic henchmen.

Thanx,Rev! Yer backing helps my credibility-cuz most new folks on here think I'm insane.
This IS a great film.
It;s so sweaty and filthy it makes me wanna take a shower. When I started watching the film-I thought Blade would be the most detestible-but 32 -cripes! He was plain out of his mind.
I do believe Bava could have gone on to more ....I dont know....saying non commercial doesnt seem the word-being stuff like HATCHET FOR THE HONEY MOON isnt very marketable...he was very intovative-always pushing the boundries.
