11. The Evil Eye (The Girl Who Knew Too Much)

The coats are leaving on a jet plane headed all the way back to 1963's Rome, where a film made by one of Italy's premiere auteurs lit the match that sparked the entire Giallo-genre. That director is Mario Bava. The film is "Evil Eye" or "The Girl Who Knew Too Much". A classic black and white thriller that solidifies the giallo tropes; and an ending that has to be seen to be believed!
