If there’s a soul left on the globe still anticipating Dario Argento’s latest blunder, GIALLO, perhaps a new Japanese one-sheet (below) and lame DVD art (right) will pique your interest as well. Remember, the flick finally arrives in the states via DVD/VOD on October 19th, so it seems the flick, much like the director’s prolonged career, just won’t f*ckin croak. I’m sad to call that a shame…
In Torino, Celine, an American model, is abducted by a taxi driver while en route home to meet her sister Linda, visiting at her apartment. The next morning, Linda reports that Celine is missing – the sergeant in charge directs her to F.B.I. agent Inspector Enzo Avolfi. He’s from the Special New York City Department investigating a serial-killer that kidnaps foreigners to destroy their beauty. When a Japanese woman is found at nearby a fountain, Enzo and Linda find that the girl is calling the abductor’s skin is “Yellow” in color and Linda concludes that the guy might have jaundice. They go to the Policlinic di Torino to find the killer.
Adrien Brody, replete with a goatee coffee shop poets would scoff at, stars in the film. He does so alongside Elsa Pataky, Emmanuelle Seigner (below), Robert Milano, Silvia Spross, Valentina Izumi and Lorenzo Pedrotti.
