Mario Bava
Mario Bava( 31 July 1914 – 27 April 1980) was an Italian cinematographer, director, special effects artist and screenwriter, frequently referred to as the" Master of Italian Horror" and the" Master of the Macabre".
His low- budget genre films, known for their distinctive visual flair and technical ingenuity, feature recurring themes and imagery concerning the conflict between illusion and reality, and the destructive capacity of human nature.
Born to sculptor, cinematographer and special effects pioneer Eugenio Bava, the younger Bava followed his father into the film industry, and eventually earned a reputation as one of Italy's foremost cameramen, lighting and providing the special effects for such films as" Hercules"( 1958) and its sequel" Hercules Unchained"( 1959)( each were lampooned on" Mystery Science Theater 3000").
During the late 1950s, his eventual career trajectory as a director began when he was relied upon to complete projects begun by or credited to his colleague Riccardo Freda and other filmmakers, including" I Vampiri"( 1957)( the first Italian horror film of the sound era)," The Day the Sky Exploded"( 1958)( the first Italian science fiction film)," Caltiki – The Immortal Monster"( 1959) and" The Giant of Marathon"( 1959).
Although most of Bava's films as director failed to achieve major commercial success upon release, many of them would eventually find acclaim as cult classics, with their content and production values being favourably compared to the works of Alfred Hitchcock.
Several of them have been noted for their revolutionary impact on their respective genres:" Black Sunday"( 1960), his official directorial debut, was the forerunner of the Italian gothic horror film cycle;" The Girl Who Knew Too Much"( 1963) is considered to be the first giallo film;" Kill, Baby, Kill"( 1966) heavily influenced the iconography of modern J-Horror;" Roy Colt& Winchester Jack"( 1970) is regarded as one of the earliest self- parodying Spaghetti Westerns;" Four Times That Night"( 1971) was an early Italian sex comedy; and" A Bay of Blood"( 1971) was a precursor to slasher films.
His other notable films include" Hercules in the Haunted World"( 1961)," Erik the Conqueror"( 1961)," Black Sabbath"( 1963)," The Whip and the Body"( 1963)," Blood and Black Lace"( 1964)," Planet of the Vampires"( 1965)," Knives of the Avenger"( 1966),( 1968)," Hatchet for the Honeymoon"( 1970)," Five Dolls for an August Moon"( 1970)," Baron Blood"( 1972)," Lisa and the Devil"( 1974)," Rabid Dogs"( 1974) and" Shock"( 1977).
Despite his reputation as a talented artist during his lifetime, Bava's shy, self- deprecating demeanour prevented him from taking advantage of opportunities that would have furthered his international standing within the film industry, and he turned down multiple opportunities to work in Hollywood.
Among the filmmakers Bava and his work have influenced include Dario Argento, Lucio Fulci, Federico Fellini, John Carpenter, Nicolas Winding Refn, Martin Scorsese, Tim Burton, Joe Dante, John Landis, Francis Ford Coppola, Roger Corman, Edgar Wright, Jennifer Kent and Quentin Tarantino.
His son and frequent assistant director, Lamberto Bava, later became a noted fantasy and horror film director in his own right.

I Want Your Love (film)
I Want Your
Love is the title of both a 2010 short film and a 2012 feature- length film.
Both films were directed and written by Travis Mathews.
The drama films both revolve around the friends and ex-lovers of Jesse Metzger, a gay man in his mid-thirties who is forced to move back to his hometown from San Francisco due to financial reasons.
The actors' own names, along with much of their real- life stories, were used for their characters in both films, which features graphic sexual scenes.
The production of both films was aided by the gay pornographic studio NakedSword.
This led to the full- length film being refused exemption from classification, which would have allowed it to screen at the Melbourne Queer Film Festival, a decision to which actor James Franco( who invited Mathews to collaborate on Franco's film" Interior. Leather Bar.") reacted negatively.

Question: Are the directors of both films Ladies Crave Excitement and Roy Colt & Winchester Jack from the same country?
Answer: no
