Production
Following the release of The House with Laughing Windows, director Pupi Avati became anxious of his reputation as a director, stating that he was being described as the "Polanski of Po Valley'" which he did not like. [2][1] Do this Avati developed his next film Tutti defunti...tranne i morti, which Italian film historian and critic Roberto Curti described as a combination of old dark house gothic, elements of Agatha Christie's Ten Little Indians, and tongue-in-cheek parodies of giallo.[1] The story and screenwriting credits in the film are credited to Pupi Avati, his brother Antonio Avati, Gianni Cavina, and Maurizio Costanzo, Pupi Avati stated that "most ideas were mine" and that the screenwriters "did not follow a real method: we were trying to out do each other on who managed to reach the most absurd territory.[3][4]
