Chambre jaune (2002) *** (out of 4) Well-made homage to the giallo from co-directors Helne Cattet and Bruno Forzani. This 8-minute short features a pretty simple story as there's a beautiful woman being stalked by a person wearing black leather gloves with a razor. Mario Bava and Dario Argento were clearly the influences on these filmmakers and they do those legends proud. This short features some great editing, a nice score and some wonderful sound effects and makes for a good entertainment. If you're a fan of the genre then you'll certainly want to check this out as it's clear who influenced this movie and there are a couple nice winks to those watching the film. The short manages to have some nice intense moments and especially towards the end where the sound effects are used to perfect effect as the razor slowly goes over the woman's body. The lighting is also handled extremely well. Some of the still photos used towards the start got a little old but this is still very much worth watching.
