After the abysmal Mother of Tears, Do You Like Hitchcock?, and The Card Player there really is nowhere left to go but up for Argento. With that said, I'm still not holding out much hope for this one. Argento just can't seem to get past his fetish of killing attractive, but supremely untalented, actresses inside really hokey thriller plots. Someone wrote that he's still growing as an artist -- really? It seems to me he's still stuck in the 80's.
