Lamberto Bava's movie Demons is amazing.
aside from Cemetery Man Michele Soavi has another great movie called Stage Fright.

also dont worry about any review in a book, these arent movies for the general movie watching public. if you enjoy italian horror movies, everything mentioned is the cream of the crop.

Argento's films start feeling repetitive after a while. I can see where a reviewer would give them poor reviews.

Soavi also did The Church, which was supposed to be Demons 3. I liked it more than Stage Fright, which was your standard slasher fare.

yeah i have The Church it just never really stuck with me like Stage Fright. the medieval prologue in the Church was always creepy to me i dont know why. i love the movie i just like Stage Fright more.
ill also add some titles by Mario Bava, as without him most of these movies wouldnt exist. The essentials to me are Blood and Black Lace, Twitch of the Death Nerve aka Bay of Blood, Black Sunday, Baron Blood, and Kill Baby Kill. and he has a great cheesy sci-fi movie called Planet of the Vampires which i could see people not liking but ive always loved, theres some elements that you can tell were an influence on Alien.
if you want to check out other euro horror films one of my favorites is The Grapes of Death, great french horror movie.
