Deep Red Reviews
Doesn't live up to the hype...
Being a huge fan of Suspiria, and The Bird With The Crystal Plumage, I was kind of let down with this one. The movie really drags it's feet with needless dialogue and the scares are far and few between. The additional footage is nothing more than conversations between the characters, and unless you speak Italian fluently, you're not going to understand what they're saying anyway. The music sounds like something from a Scooby Doo cartoon.
There's a handful of brief scary moments, in classic Argento style, that get lost in a 2 hour snooze-fest.
Argento's second best movie!
A mysterious killer who uses a hatchet for a weapon is on the loose in Rome causing some serious crimes especially on a re-owned psychic woman. A British jazz pianist joins up with a reporter to find clues and capture this deranged lunatic or else they'll be next on the killer's list of who to kill.
Brilliant and startling Italian horror thriller shocker from the Italian master of terror Dario Argento ("Suspiria", "Phenomena") that is considered by critics to be his best movie! i have to disagree cause i believe that's Suspiria to be his masterpiece while this is his second best movie. The acting is good with the music score by Goblin being superb, there's plenty of good gory killing scenes and scares such as the memorable robotic doll sequence! it's a dark and broadening thriller that will keep you on the edge of your toes and will have you guessing until the very twisted ending.
This DVD has good picture and sound quality as the movie is for the first time in America uncut and uncensored with some missing scenes restored back in with the original Italian language and English subtitles, there's some extras like a featurette, bio and trailers.
Recommended if you like horror and thrillers.
