Three solid and scary tales of terror from the undisputed master of Italian horror, Mario Bava.

Slant Magazine by Chris Cabin

Black Sabbath speaks to the vastness of Bava’s abilities in the realms of the terrifying and the supernatural.

The A.V. Club by Keith Phipps

There's a little bit of everything in Bava's best-known film, the three-part anthology Black Sabbath.

USA Today by Mike Clark

Back when anthology TV shows such as The Twilight Zone and Thriller were in their heyday, the movies, too, entertained a spate of horror/supernatural multistory features that fans still regard with affection. Director Mario Bava, whose earlier single-story satanic yarn Black Sunday picked up a wide following, turned Sabbath into one of the best. [11 Aug 2000, 8E]

The Dissolve by Noel Murray

Even with Boris Karloff providing a lighthearted introduction and sign-off, Black Sabbath is fraught with fatalism.
