Piove

As an Italian I am always happy when a made in Italy horror is good and appreciated. I really liked the classic horror story that Strippoli had directed together with De Feo, this time Strippoli directs a good horror solo that reflects a lot the times of madness and urban violence that we are experiencing from the pandemic onwards.

The staging is good, the first part perhaps a little too slow, but then it meshes and becomes a tour de force of ferocity and violence, without revealing too much I can say that this film is not a masterpiece, but it certainly stands out. And deserves the view.

Special mention for Cristiana Dell'Anna (Patrizia in the masterpiece TV series Gomorra) who is not seen in many scenes in this film, but when she does see herself she offers a truly excellent performance.
