Episode notes
We’re joined by longtime friend of the show (but first time on mic!) Alejandro Arbona, a 20-year veteran of comics editing and a comics writer himself, to discuss everyone’s favorite extravagantly-perverse Italian thriller genre — GIALLO. We discuss what defines a giallo and differentiates it from other sub-genres (and the slasher films it helped inspire), and then Alejandro runs us through a little giallo title quiz. It’s so jam-packed with info we didn’t have room for Elliott (jk, he had scheduling issues, that li’l scamp will be back next time!).
If you’d like to support Alejandro’s Kickstarter for Lake Yellowwood Slaughter, here’s a link to the pre-launch signup, ya dirty slasher freaks!

About the show
The Flop House is a bimonthly audio podcast devoted to the worst in recent film. Your hosts (Elliott Kalan, Dan McCoy, and Stuart Wellington) watch a questionable film just before each episode, and then engage in an unscripted, slightly inebriated discussion, focusing on the movie’s shortcomings and occasional delights.
