Francesco Campanini

A man obsessed with violent ‘snuff’ videos, featuring people being abused, tortured and killed, goes on to commit his own similar crimes.

Italy, 1947. Attilio is a Fascist and disgraced former movie star. Out of desperation, he joins a band of robbers for a heist. After the robbery, Attilio and the robbers take refuge in a house that proves to be deadly.

A three-billion-lire hit. A bloody hold-up. A sole survivor. Hunted down by fate and ruthless gangsters, Leo Piazza finds himself with a "hot" suitcase on his hands. Forced to go into hiding, time is running out. The killers want him dead so they can retrieve the loot and the showdown draws near... A nocturnal and silent anti-hero, Piazza moves like a zombie, like the living dead.

Pieces of Eldritch continues the anthology tradition with six Poe stories - like Morella, The Cask of Amontillado, and King Pest - presented through varied aesthetic lenses.
