Its my fav Argento movie- he integrated all the popular Giallo elements and made an entertaining movie, which commercial audience could lap up. This may not be Argento's best but its my favorite and the Goblin score .....I still get goose-pimples listening to the theme. Red Herring's a dozen and brilliant revelation at the end with some awesome kills. WOWOWOWOWOWOWOW - ARGENTO-TOOOOO GOOOOOD
One of Argentos finest. Here you have your typical giallo, a murder mystery that goes far beyond a murder suspect and a motive. Here Argento has once again proven that a strong film score will make or break a film. Aside from that, this film has brilliant murder sequences, a twisted storyline that keeps you guessing and thinking and trying to point out every detail until the films over.
I love how Argento is able to write and direct such a style of film and keep the viewer scared stiff. The atmosphere this movie is filmed in is similar to his other early works like Suspiria, Tenebre and Opera, a very seat cringing feel. Its hard to watch this film and not be scared every time I see it. If this is your first Argento film, it is highly recommended if you are into Hitchcocks style. 9 out of 10.
Argento does it again in this highly stylized horror film that drips with atmosphere and a constant sense of dread.My personal favorite scene is the creepy puppet scene.That made me jump the first time I saw it,and that's hard to do.Not as good as Phenomena or Suspiria,but anyone who has an appreciation for his work should be required by law to add this to thier collection.
