The Killer Must Kill Again Cozzi originally wanted to call the film" Il Ragno The Spider") but it was changed to" The Killer Must Kill Again" by the producers. It is based on the novel" Al mare con la ragazza"( translation:" By the Sea With the Girl") by Giorgio Scerbanenco. The film was also released as The Dark Is Death's Friend. Michel Antoine( who plays the killer in this film) later played the tortured painter in Lucio Fulci's" The Beyond".

Luigi Cozzi( born 7 September 1947) is an Italian film director and screenwriter. After directing his first film" The Tunnel Under the World", Cozzi befriended director Dario Argento and began working with him in film and television as well as directing his own features including" Hercules" as well as continuing work with Argento.

In 1967 she appeared in" Dove si spara di più", directed by Gianni Puccini and starring Peter Lee Lawrence, with whom she married. Arguably her best- known role is as" Elizabeth Seccles", a boarding school girl having an affair with a married professor of Italian and gymnastics, in the 1972 Massimo Dallamano giallo," What Have You Done to Solange?" A recent DVD release of her 1975 film" The Killer Must Kill Again", the most notable work of Luigi Cozzi( a friend and associate of giallo film master Dario Argento) has presented her controversial work in that more obscure representative of the Italian horror genre. Cozzi mentions on his DVD commentary for the film how Galbó was uncomfortable with the film's most disturbing scene, the killer's rape of her kidnapped and abused character. Galbó also has a significant role in another boarding school shocker, Narciso Ibáñez Serrador's 1969 Spanish film" The House That Screamed".
