Giallo Meltdown 3 starts TONIGHT!

I am returning to the land of the giallo once again to prove once and for all that… I own a shitload of these dang movies! But I ain’t braggin’. At the end of the first Giallo Meltdown, I was a gibbering mass of failure. And by the end of Giallo Meltdown 2, I was less gibbering and more successful. However, it was painfully obvious to me that a third Giallo Meltdown was very necessary.
This time around, I’m bending the rules a bit. Fulci and Argento are now allowed to enter the arena. Since there are some titles of theirs that have crept into my collection since Argentophobia and Doomed Fulci-Thon took place, I have elected to allow the big boys to get in on the fun. Initially, I didn’t want Bava, Fulci, and Argento involved so that the other masters such as Umberto Lenzi and Sergio Martino could have their chance in the spotlight.
Speaking of Mario Bava… I am still editing BAVADOOM which will be up in the next few weeks (meaning months). The editing of The Chowdown was very time consuming and pushed BAVADOOM back a bit. Excuses, excuses, excuses! Once BAVADOOM is up then I’ll get to work on Giallo Meltdown 3 (unless it is a horrible disaster!) and then I’ll be taking a little break from moviethons for a while. Don’t worry, I’ll still be all up in this here blog and writing reviews for Doomed Moviethon. My main focus right now is a book project which will be taking up most of my free time so I will be letting the moviethons rest for a bit. However, the best and greatest moviethon of all time is still to come.

GM3 was a rousing success. Bad Inclination got booted from the playlist so it was 16 giallos from Frinday night to Sunday night. Good times.
