Giallo Body Count

Watching more and more gialli I realized that although they are usually very gory and bloody overall, in many of them, there are not that many kills. Usually in the movies without the masked killer you don't get too many victims, or too much violence.
I will update this article whenever I watch a giallo. my goal is to find the movie with highest and lowest number of kills.

Of course the list is a bit of a spoiler, so I advise you: don't check the list before you watch a giallo, or you'll be just waiting for those three more to die...
