Note: Not that I consider these to be terrible movies. It's just the looks I get when explaining the plots of these movies to non-geeks makes me feel like a huge dork.
Oh gods they’re mostly [i]terribad[/], and there’s one I refuse to watch ever again (Night Train Murders. Don’t go there. Just don’t. Worryingly plausible, and truly stomach churning in parts. Seriously, please don’t bother watching it. It’s grim).
But there’s just a certain dedication to crassness that keeps me coming back for more!
Kudos to your tastes. Many people don't even know what a Giallo is, and should be feeling guilty about not knowing!

For me, the main attraction is that they could all have been genuinely good thrillers, had they focussed less on fleshy excess, and more on the plot. Most of them build it up, then blow it. Of course, the dodgy dubbing and low production values don’t help.

Superargo VS Dibolikus - A masked wrestler becomes a secret agent and fights a madman & his army of evil robots.
Santo VS The Vampire Women - A masked wrestler (Santo) is tasked with a rescue mission against an army of vampire women.
The Champion of Justice - A masked wrestler (Blue Demon) fights a mad scientist that can transform dwarves into an army of super strong assassins. Hmmmmm
Santo VS The She Wolves - A masked wrestler (Santo again) taking on the Queen of the werewolves & her army of werewolves.
I'm sorry but every action movie ever made would be vastly improved by having a masked Mexican wrestler brawling in it somewhere. Oh and a Samurai should show up too.

Exalt, Sir. If only I could give you a movie studio, and watch your glorious productions.

Orkeosaurus, on homophobia, the nature of homosexuality, and the greatness of George Takei.
English doesn't borrow from other languages. It follows them down dark alleyways and mugs them for loose grammar.
