Luigi Cozzi -the author of this book - had the pleasure to meet Mario Bava in the most fertile period of the latter’s extraordinary career in the movies: therefore, this volume offers an in-depth and very personal portrait of this famous director, who made such horror and science fiction classics as MASK OF SATAN, BLOOD AND BLACK LACE, PLANET OF THE VAMPIRES and KILL, BABY…KILL! This book also features an interview with Mario’s son, Lamberto Bava, plus lots of rarely seen pictures.
