RED RINGS OF FEAR (ENIGMA ROSSO), 1978, 85 min. Director Alberto Negrin wraps up the SOLANGE trilogy in this giallo where more sexually precocious schoolgirls bite the dust. Fabio Testi is the police inspector on the murderer’s trail, and Christine Kaufmann is his girlfriend. Chock-full of red herrings, perverse twists, sleazy situations, outrageous dialogue and an out-of-left-field climax, punctuated by Riz Ortolani’s groovy score.

菲律賓新銳導演肯尼斯達格丹入選日舞影展和多國奇幻影展的《母侵夢魘》，以二戰尾聲的菲律賓為背景，居住偏遠家庭，因母親病重，家中無糧食，姊弟倆穿越森林去鄰村覓食，意外在廢棄教堂遇見仙女相助，並聽從指示讓蟬爬入母親體內幫治病，母親確實痊癒，但似乎已不是她的母親。影片充滿濃厚菲律賓特色，將在地傳說、宗教信仰、戰爭與殖民歷史，以身體變異與穿腦音景的驚悚手法，融合為一部讓人惴惴不安的暗黑童話。
