description
Paolo Cavara has given his contribution to the Italian Giallo genre with the movies La tarantola dal ventre nero and ...E tanta paura.
La tarantola dal ventre nero is an enthralling giallo that draws a lot of tension (accompanied by a sumptuous score by M° Morricone) thanks to the professionalism by a director who manages to realize a high quality movie over the mediocrity of some 70's movies of the same genre.
This is the sixth volume of Digitmovies' series dedicated to Ennio Morricone's music for the giallo genre.
This CD project was made possible through the generous cooperation of C.A.M. (in whose archives the original stereophonic master tapes have been preserved) and through the help of Maestro Ennio Morricone who authorized every selected track and supervised the production.
Ennio Morricone wrote a dissonant orchestral comment based on a varied scale acoustic and electronic musical experimentation.
The macabre atmosphere is broken by two romantic lounge-style themes featuring the splendid voice by Edda Dell'Orso:
the main title theme Coiffeur pour dames (tr. 1, and its alternative reprise in tr. 12) and a more sad, veiled theme for flugel horn and Edda's voice (Tr. 4, Tr. 8, Tr. 15).
The horrible murder scenes are emphasized by avant-garde tension music like Tr. 2, Tr. 4, Tr. 5, Tr. 9.
Some selections from the score were already available on the 33 rpm album Cerberus, re-issued later on the CD C.A.M. while track 6 & 7 were exclusively available on rare sonorization LPs of C.A.M.
 
story

This frightening horror-thriller stars Giancarlo Giannini as Inspector Tellini, chasing a killer whose victims are paralyzed with a poisoned acupuncture needle, forcing them to watch helplessly as their stomachs are ripped open with a sharp knife.
This method duplicates the habits of the black wasp in slaying tarantulas, explaining the title.
Much of the film is spent on a wild goose chase involving Silvano Tranquilli, the husband of the first victim (Barbara Bouchet).
All of the suspects soon turn up dead and Giannini turns his attention to an upscale health spa, frequented by each victim, which is a front for blackmail and cocaine smuggling.
The mystery itself is fairly obvious, but director Paolo Cavara includes a good deal of action and Ennio Morricone's score is effectively chilling.
Among the cast are such genre favorites as Annabella Incontrera, Stefania Sandrelli, Claudine Auger, Rossella Falk, and Giancarlo Priete, and, as in many Italian thrillers of the period, voyeurism is the primary motif.
Barbara Bach and Carla Mancini appear briefly.
