Psycho killer time once again from Mario Bava. This version is told from the point of view of the killer as he tries to figure out why he wants to kill. But in the meantime while he works out his personal issues he slaughters brides to be and burns their bodies.
This is up to the usual high Bava standards, creepy killings and gorgeous gothic photography which Bava did himself
Bava has gone down this road before and Hatchet for the Honeymoon is very reminiscent of his horror classic Blood and Black Lace, particularly with the emphasis on killing beautiful models.
If this kind of film has to be made then I guess it's very well made but there is a "seen it all before" aspect to this film which it can't shake off.
105 minutes.
