Although it doesn't have a particularly strong ending, The Black Belly of the Tarantula has some prime suspense to offer. It is a prime example of what you get when you mix the stylishness and darkness from a Giallo with a bit of grimy Poliziotteschi police procedure. The kills are very sadistic, as the victims are first paralysed, then killed with a knife, while awake and still able to sense what is happening…unable to resist. For some reason, this seems worse to me than most of the gory kills that are so prevalent in this genre. Anyway, The Black Belly of the Tarantula is well worth a watch…especially for Giallo fans.

The Black Belly of the Tarantula is is a fairly boring giallo. The title alludes to wasps that paralyze insects, then lay eggs inside them - which is real, by the way; we even get to see stock footage of this in the movie - even though they call it a tarantula, it's actually just a spider.
