It is a dark, contemporary story told in a haunting giallo style.
The story is based on true events, yet imagines the horror that may have unfolded in absence of actual evidence. The body was never found and the killer never caught. “Mad In Italy” brings to life a serial killer protected by members of the very community he terrorizes in the Italian countryside. It is a stark, menacing prose that unfolds in a enthralling and chilling narrative.Fazzini brings a blend of verite and giallo together in blunt, disturbing resonance. “Mad In Italy” creates a dark, malevolence to the mundane side of life, where harsh circumstances can create harsh personalities. The cast manages to bring a measured depth to the characters, while giving us some disconnect that allows authenticity to settle into the film’s intent. There is nice bit of neo-noir mixed into the “Mad In Italy” that keeps the film from falling too far into the surrealist style.The special effects are more visual aspects to create atmosphere and enhance the thrilling context of the film. There is some gore, however it is minimal, and blunt. The soundtrack is what you would want and expect from a film like this, haunting-hypnotic-chilling. The atmosphere is as sinister as the material expressed in “Mad In Italy”. The only thing that may bother horror fans is the amount of time between the horror elements found in the kill sequences and the dramatic portions that bring to life the psychological and suspenseful. Overall, I found “Mad In Italy” mesmerizing, and entertaining but I was irritated somewhat by the more subdued and minimalist approach to the gore and kill scenes.

Un buon film
Un buon progetto indie, che trova nel bravo Gianluca Testa il suo punto di forza. Qualche elemento facilmente prevedibile riduce il mio giudizio finale, ma stiamo parlando di limiti perdonabili. Il regista Paolo Fazzini potrebbe regalarci qualche bella sorpresa, nel futuro.Buone musiche, audio discreto.

Una perla del cinema indipendente italiano
Una piccola perla nel panorama del cinema indipendente italiano. Nonostante i pochi mezzi a disposizione della produzione, un film che colpisce nel segno grazie alla qualità della regia di Paolo Fazzini e alla sorprendente interpretazione di Gianluca Testa. Da vedere. 5 stelle
