Интересные факты

Specters is a 1987 Italian horror film directed by Marcello Avallone and starring Donald Pleasence.

Production

Specters was the fourth feature film for director Marcello Avallone. His third film Cugine mie had been released a decade prior. Avallone decided to work in horror films when in the United States in 1980. Avallone began work on the project through the help of producer Maurizio Tedesco, the brother of actress Paola Tedesco, and began to develop a horror film aimed at foreign markets.

Avallone worked on the script with Andrea Purgatori, a reporter for Corriere della Sera newspaper. Despite his name being featured in the credits, Dardano Sacchetti's work on the film was small, with Sacchetti explaining that the writers really believed in the script but the financiers behind it were not as confident and hired him as a script doctor.

Specters was shot in nine weeks and shot in English. Among the cast was John Pepper who had worked as an assistant director on films such as The World According to Garp (1982) and Ghostbusters (1984). Pepper was predominantly chosen for the role for his fluency in English, and this was his only leading acting role.
