The Editor
Directed by Adam Brooks, Matthew Kennedy
A homage and parody of the Italian giallo from Canadian production company Astron-6, THE EDITOR tells the story of a talented film editor whose career is ruined after a tragic accident disfigures his hand. Unable to find work at respectable studios, Rey, resigns himself to a quiet life working on low grade B movies, but when actors at the studio turn up dead, he finds himself the number one suspect. Packed full of homages, astute references and cameos, THE EDITOR is a humorous and loving look at the Italian subgenre.
A once-prolific film editor finds himself the prime suspect in a series of murders haunting a seedy 1970s film studio in this absurdist throwback to the Italian Giallo.
Cast: Paz de la Huerta, Adam Brooks, Laurence R. Harvey, Udo Kier

Nice
Well, that was fun! Perfect modern remix of a giallo. And, um, the blonde guy is packing. ;)
Loved every moment of this film. Such a hysterical take on 70’s Italian horror.

I thought it was awesome. I love it's style and weird humor. I haven't ever seen a Giallo film or whatever, but apparently it doesn't take away from enjoying it. 10/10 would watch again.
