Discovered Dario Argento over a year ago, in cinema festivals, this movie was the first Argento I experienced, how weird it was, the actors played -not- perfectly, the metal music was coming out of nowhere, the plot and situations were sometimes almost laughable, then I saw phenomena, deep red, and finally Suspiria. It took me over one year but when I saw Suspiria I finally fell in love with Argento, and the eerie music always accompanying his direction. I finally stopped taking the acting too seriously, and that first odd feeling I felt when watching Opera, I now almost miss, as if I had woken up from the dream that is Dario Argento's filmography. Yes, I've found it. His movies are like dreams, imperfect, the characters are unfamiliar faces, their voice dubbed over and all those different languages mixed together, it all feels like a dream, even more so to a linguist, as my dreams sometimes feature several languages and accents. This soundtrack will always be reminiscent of the first time I experienced such an awakened dream.

@@josephk7946 You want the same kick ? Or more......Definitely get your hands on anything Mario Bava (but start with the gothic horror classics), And all 3 Forzani-Cattet movies - gialli-italian gothic -western-poliziotesco done the right way. And 3 quarters of Lucio Fulci of course - the later ones - well acquired taste but not as bad as people made em out to . Nor is latter day Argento as bad as people make it out. Stendhal Syndrome, Non ho Sonno, Terza madre have solid merits (depending on how far you go along in Argento Madness. Card Player certainly deserves another look. Phantom of the Opera has some delirious touches (and acting) and hey any movie with a Morricone score deserves attention and love. Anybody here ever watches Teruo Ishii ?

@@palmereldritch7777 I hadn't heard of Forzani-Cattet. Good to see gialli are still being made. I'm not a big fan of Bava. I didn't much like Blood & Black Lace, although I fairly recently watched LIsa & the Devil. Don't know Fulci well, as generally I don't like too much gore, but I did catch his House of Clocks which made quite an impression on me. As for Argento, I've seen nearly all his films (couple I haven't watched). Non ho Sonno & Card Player I really enjoyed, but - maybe I didn't understand it - but I just wish Terza Madre had never been made - I thought it was an abominable conclusion to the the Three mothers series. On the other hand I quite liked his 2009 film, Giallo. I'm also quite fascinated by Stendhal Syndrome, mainly because for me it has one of the best soundtracks (despite not being Goblin) but also because there's something weird going on with his use of his own daughter, Asia, in the part. Asia, has said she was raped about this time & made her own film about the trauma (which I haven't seen). I'm not quite sure what Dario was doing in this film, but I presume it was supposed to be cathartic somehow.

@Emulous798 жыл бұрын
Ia kampa Mother of Tears is OK, but it is nothing like the other two. Much more violent, with some tasty nudity, and unintentional humour. If it's cheap, I'd buy it for sure. Giallo is much, much worse with that stupid Rambo-lookalike, and Dracula is not much better (but for the Gothic scenery and again nudity). Dario's a dirty old man!
@iakampa62658 жыл бұрын
***** I'll probably grab it then. Dracula looks like an amateur effort with its artificial, green-screened look and the reviews seem to confirm that it's as bad as it seems. At least we still got the old classics.
