Definitely.

Reminded me of a gory take on Psycho in some ways.

I usually mix my viewing but still when on a giallo trip...it helps to watch some other stuff then and return to the giallo genre afterwards (feels good everytime!).

A few other films I would classify as suspense giallo (there's more):

So Sweet... So Perverse
Paranoia
Dirty Pictures aka Oasis of Fear
Your Vice Is A Locked Room And Only I Have The Key (some gothic influences as well)
Knife Of Ice
Amuck
Smile Before Death
The Perfume Of The Lady In Black (extreme suspense! )
Waves of Lust
The Body

A little musical interlude...

Yep, definitely a lot I haven't seen on that list. Haven't even got a copy of Oasis Of Fear yet.

Could be the reason why it's not so popular.

So I'm a sucker for punishment. Despite the awful reviews I decided to give Bad Inclination a look. Picked it up on ebay pretty cheap so I'll check it when it arrives and see how long I last...

Yes!

The acting is terrible, and it feels like a softcore porno a lot of the time, but it's a lot of fun. Needs a decent DVD release too.

It is a lot of fun.
I have the Thai dvd.
Could do with an upgrade though.
