A giallo blood-opera, which features some of the most gruelling sequences in the genre’s vast canon, A Blade in the Dark holes up a talented composer in a spacious Tuscany retreat. Unfortunately, a maniac is prowling the immediate environment and no one, incuding our heroic musician, is safe from this hack-happy psychopath's collection of dangerously sharp weapons. Co-starring the legendary Michele Soavi and written by the equally iconic twosome of Dardano Sacchetti and Elisa Briganti, A Blade in the Dark is one of the finest gore-epics from the halcyon days of Italian horror madness.
