Mas ninguém pos em causa a carreira da Jamie ,só pus em causa o Halloween não ser pioneiro no género slasher.
E o Psycho é baseado no livro de Robert Bloch este inspirado nos
gialli.
The term giallo derives from the series of mystery/crime pulp novels first published by the Mondadori publishing house, starting from 1929, entitled Il Giallo Mondadori, taking their name from the yellow cover background.
Published as cheapish paperbacks, the success of the "giallo" novels soon began attracting the attention of other publishing houses, who began releasing their own versions (not forgetting to keep the by-now-traditional yellow cover). The Giallo Mondadori popularity then established the word giallo in Italian as the widespread translation of the English "mystery".
The film genre that emerged from these novels in the 1960s began as literal adaptations of the books, but soon began taking advantage of modern cinematic techniques to create a unique genre which veered into horror and psychological thrillers. These films, particularly such 1970s classics by directors like Sergio Martino, Lucio Fulci, Dario Argento or Mario Bava, are only defined as "gialli" in the English language usage of the term; in Italy they are usually described as thrillers or, as a genre, "Thrilling" or "Giallo all'italiana". In the English-speaking world the term "giallo" became established as an adjective to "thriller" and "horror".
O Psycho é inovador sim senhor mas bebe da mesma fonte do Halloween
gialli
