# Trademark 1 Scenes on an airplane as a means of establishing or ending a story in his films. Examples: The Evil Eye (1963), Baron Blood (1972), Lisa and the Devil (1974) and Shock (1977). 2 Frequent uses of a zoom frame onto or back from a character's face during suspense scenes.
# Quote 1 The guys of the Cahiers du Cinéma came to me. They wanted to analyze the connection between the plate swinging at the beginning of Blood and Black Lace (1964) and the telephone falling to the ground when Eva Bartok dies. I didn't even remember how the movie ended. 2 In a horror film, lighting is 70% of the effectiveness. It's essential in creation the atmosphere. 3 I didn't want to be a director because, in my opinion, a director must be a true genius. 4 Movies are a magician's forge, they allow you to build a story with your hands--at least, that's what it means to me. What attracts me in movies is to be presented with a problem and be able to solve it. Nothing else; just to create an illusion, an effect, with almost nothing.
# Fact 1 Dino De Laurentiis originally approached Bava to handle the special effects of King Kong (1976). Bava did not want to leave Italy so he turned down the offer. He recommended Carlo Rambaldi .2 He became a director of photography in 1939. 3 He trained as a painter and was able to execute a number of matte and glass paintings for his films. 4 Son of Eugenio Bava . 5 Father of director Lamberto Bava .
