According to the Talmud ( Bava Batra 14b-15a, Rashi to Megillah 3a, 14a ), much of the contents of the Tanakh was compiled by the Men of the Great Assembly ( Anshei K ' nesset HaGedolah ), a task completed in 450 BCE, and have remained unchanged since that date.

7 ( it is to be interpreted thus according to Bava Batra 14a ), that Aaron's Rod, together with its blossoms and fruit, was preserved in the Ark.

Mario Bava ( 31 July 1914 – 25 April 1980 ) was an Italian director, screenwriter, special effects artist and cinematographer, remembered as one of the greatest names from the " golden age " of Italian horror films, and is considered to have kick-started the giallo film genre.

Mario Bava was born in Sanremo, Liguria.

The son of Eugenio Bava, a sculptor who became a pioneer of special effects photography and subsequently one of the great cameramen of Italian silent pictures, Mario Bava's first ambition was to become a painter.

Bava was originally hired as the cinematographer, but when Freda walked out on the project midway through production, Bava completed the film in several days, even creating the innovative special effects that were needed.

Bava directed what is now regarded as the first Italian giallo film, The Girl Who Knew Too Much ( 1963 ), and his 1965 sci-fi horror film Planet of the Vampires was a thematic precursor to Alien ( 1979 ).

Mario Bava was very disappointed with the distribution of some of his later films ( which caused him to retire in 1978 at age 63 ).

Lucas's critical biography Mario Bava All the Colors of the Dark ( ISBN 0-9633756-1-X ), a vast work thirty-two years in preparation, with a special introduction penned by Martin Scorsese, was published in August 2007 by Video Watchdog.

It was honored as Best Book of 2007 by The Rondo Hatton Classic Horror Awards and the Sex Gore Mutants website, as an Independent Publisher Book Award Bronze Medal winner in the Performing Arts category, and The Academy of Science Fiction, Fantasy & Horror Films recognized Mario Bava: All the Colors of the Dark by having actor John Saxon present Lucas and his wife Donna with the rarely-presented Saturn Award for Special Achievement.

Lamberto Bava ( born 3 April 1944 ) is an Italian film director, specializing in horror, giallo and fantasy films.

Argento subsequently took a break from directing to write two screenplays for Mario Bava's son, Lamberto Bava: Dèmoni ( 1985 ) and Dèmoni 2 ( 1986 ).

Bava retired in 1978 after co-directing his last horror film, Shock, with his son Lamberto ( although he did some special effects matte work on Dario Argento's 1980 movie Inferno ).

Mario Bava's son Lamberto Bava worked for fourteen years as Bava's assistant director, and went on to become a horror film director on his own.

In 1989, Bava's son, Lamberto Bava, made a quasi-remake of the film.

Sonae. com's takeover bid opposed Belmiro de Azevedo ( founder and historical chairman of Sonae holding company ) and his son Paulo Azevedo ( then the head officer of Sonae. com telecommunications operator ) to the investor José Berardo and PT's administrators Zeinal Bava and Henrique Granadeiro.

During the 1960s and 70s, Italian filmmakers Mario Bava, Riccardo Freda, Antonio Margheriti and Dario Argento developed giallo horror films that become classics and influenced the genre in other countries.

In France, Eyes Without a Face ( 1960 ) continued the mad scientist theme, while in Italy director Mario Bava began his own series of horror films.

Bava proved highly influential on Italian horror cinema and ushered in a new wave of Italian directors, including most notably Dario Argento, as well as prompting the release of numerous giallo films in the early 1970s.

Writing in 2000, Tim Lucas wrote that Bava is " the acknowledged smoking gun behind the ' body count ' movie phenomenon of the 1980s, which continues to dominate the horror genre two decades later with such films as Scream, I Know What You Did Last Summer and their respective sequels.

Bava completed filming I vampiri for director Riccardo Freda in 1956, now referred to as the first Italian horror film.

In 1960, Bava directed Black Sunday, a gothic horror film and his first solo directorial effort, which made a genre star out of Barbara Steele.

Black Sabbath ( Italian: I tre volti della paura ) is a 1963 Italian horror anthology film directed by Mario Bava.

Some critics, such as Tim Lucas and Alan Upchurch, have also compared Ptushko to Italian filmmaker Mario Bava, who made fantasy and horror films with similarities to Ptushko's work and made similarly innovative use of color cinematography and special effects.

Reportedly, famed Italian horror director Lucio Fulci was furious when he learned that Bava directed this film, since he had understood that he was slated to direct it with the project's screenwriter Dardano Sacchetti.

Although Bava more recently made 2 violent horror films entitled Ghost Son and The Torturer, it seems he strongly favors the made-for-TV fantasy films.

He never finished either of the two horror films he was assigned in the Fifties (" I VAMPIRI " and " CALTIKI "), but rather allowed his cinematographer Mario Bava to complete them.

The Whip and the Body ( Italian: La frusta e il corpo ) is a 1963 Italian gothic horror film directed by Mario Bava.

Black Sunday ( Italian: La maschera del demonio ; also known as The Mask of Satan ) is a 1960 Italian gothic horror film directed by Mario Bava, from a screenplay by Ennio de Concini, Mario Serandrei and Marcello Coscia ( who was uncredited ).

As a lover of Russian fantasy and horror, Bava decided to adapt Nikolai Gogol's 1865 horror story " Viy " into a feature film.

However, the resultant screenplay ( by Bava, Ennio De Concini and Mario Serandrei ) in fact owed very little to Gogol at all, and seemed to be more a tribute to the atmospheric black-and-white gothic horror films of the 1930s, especially those produced by Universal Studios.

Mario Bava, ostensibly the director of this nonsense, allows this female Bela Lugosi to quench her thirst four times before she burns, screaming, at the stake [...] As a setting for unadulterated horror, it will leave its audiences yearning for that quiet, sunny little motel in Psycho.
