Happy birthday to Italian genre cinema maestro Mario Bava! Today would've been his 108th birthday, and even though he left us in 1980 his amazing artistic legacy only continues to grow with his influence visible in recent films such as LAST NIGHT IN SOHO, MANDY and THE NEON DEMON just to name a few. He's been name-dropped by filmmakers as diverse as Martin Scorsese, John Carpenter, Quentin Tarantino, Francis Ford Coppola and Guillermo del Toro - and for good reasons. We can continue to enjoy his work even as we mourn his absence. Happy Birthday, Maestro!
