The Weeno-Corner?

[@nmrzk27]

I wish it's open for remote worker 😞

[@magzdilluh]

Jennifer Connelly with a psychic connection to insects? I'm sold.

[@CorbCorbin]

And a genius chimp!

[@TheAutistWhisperer]

It's great.

[@lingusdingua4889]

It's one of Argento's best. Donald Pleasence has a monkey butler.

[@aidengrips]

As of giallo I find Blood and Black Lace as the best example. Immediately gives you the itallian slasher vibes

[@TheKinoCorner]

Blood and Black Lace is definitely a good entry point into the genre. I love the art direction and colors.

[@oliverquick3405]

Thanks a lot for your dedication

[@hallokino3781]

1:04 He said the name of my channel?!? *shiver*

[@21palica]

Another great video. I really enjoy your movie selection, presentation and (most of all) the "I might be overthinking this, but what if..." perspectives. Keep them coming, TKC!

[@behelit1997]

Giallo is such an underrated movie genre, Bay of Blood's gore influenced directly Friday the 13th, and Tenebræ's incredible scene revolutionized synth prog.

[@HorrorHermitofHell]

Ween reference in the first minute, love it!! Hail the Boognish!

[@richardfowler5163]

I've not watched Opera in years. I still have the Anchor Bay 3 discer from many years ago on DVD. What put me off was the dubbing with a very echoey soundtrack. It even sounded like that on the old censored VHS release in the UK as 'Terror at the Opera'. Maybe I need a re-watch with the Italian audio with English subs. For me, Profondo Rosso is Argento at his finest. Not the extended version, but the full English version. It's a much more condensed experience. Great presentation.

[@Giangiaofficial]

I'm Italian. In here the most famous movie from Dario Argento is Deep Red ("Profondo Rosso"), while Suspiria isn't well known. Evereybody knows about Profondo Rosso, but a very few knows about Suspiria; I think it's cause the latter has a more international spirit (the location, the cast, the language of the shootings), while Profondo Rosso was shot in Torino, for example. However, I love Suspiria and Deep Red, but I dislike Argento; I think he made literary miracles with 3/4 movies, but then his divine powers run out

[@TheAutistWhisperer]

I recently watched Don't Torture A Duckling, I very much enjoyed it, as well as Opera.

[@TheAsphyx666]

That's a great film, one of Fulci's best imho. If you liked that one, make sure to check out "The Psychic" and "Lizard in a Woman's Skin".

[@HorrorHermitofHell]

I instantly went to watch this on Shudder and I kind of agree that the sound of music alps wasnt necessary at the end but what angered me most was the subtitles kept saying (ravens cawing) leading me to a rabbit hole of crows vs ravens. Also, when singing, the subtitles would say foreign singing and the next shot, says Betty singing in Italian! I know more than one opera was in a different language but, foreign? I'm a stickler for subtitles though. I had no idea water could truckle or scream 😂 had to read that 3 times as it made no sense! (Water screaming) (Water Truckling) I thought the stage manager looked familiar also. I was like hey he kind of looks like that guy from Copycat. Yeah thats because it was him! This was a great video from you and I thank you for leading me down this wonderful giallo path!

[@Arbiter099]

You work with Futo? I pay attention to Louis Rossmann and I hear nothing but good things about them through him. 👍Thanks for the kino, Kino.

[@TheKinoCorner]

Been working for them for a couple years now. I know Louis very well. I make all their videos and I've shot a couple of Louis's videos, too.

[@21palica]

@@TheKinoCorner Wait, so the Kino-Rossmann tag team is real, not just a YT rumor? Now I want to have you two as an action figure set, including Clinton the cat and Louis' chair, of course.

[@dugonman8360]

Phenomena was actually the movie I chose for my first date movie night when I was initially dating my wife.

[@doughembree3299]

I think every horror movie ever would be greatly improved if they had heavy metal bangers in the soundtrack during the murder scenes like Opera did.

[@johns123]

Saw Phenomena in theaters last weekend, such a great film. Argento does dreams so well

[@JergenSplergen]

I LOVED the ending of Opera. I remember being so perplexed.

[@14thHourFilms]

yeah can't lie "Kino-ween" made me turn my head lol, good video

[@LunaticGunstar]

Phenomena is my favorite Argento movie. Anyone who doesn't like it must just hate fun.

[@Jeremy-ho3vi]

I don't know. Miss Connelly is lovely to look at but not much happened? I don't understand the fuss over Argento? I like the 'Saw' movies. - Dumb White Male, Australia.

[@ibuprofeno400pa]

And you didn't even mention Argento's probably best movie: Four flies on grey velvet. It's his art manifest about his search of beauty in death.

[@TheAsphyx666]

I totally agree it's Argento's last great movie (although I have great personal appreciation for his return to giallo in "Sleepless"), and I say that as a lifelong fan. But man, everything that came before it is pretty stellar, especially his 70s run.

[@dilansmithee503]

0:00 - 0:46 Bro reenacting us Kino-bros fantasy...he can't keep getting away with this! lmao

[@bruh_hahaha]

Tenebrae is the one that got me hooked on giallo. For younger audiences, I think Tenebrae and Opera are the best movies to get your feet wet. 🍿🔪

[@wateronmars-bz4yc]

I'm glad you entertain you may just be thinking too much. no crime though. excellent take.

[@jacobstaten2366]

Malignant probably counts as a comedy version of this genre.

[@smassiha7881]

Bird with the Xtal Plummage is my favorite horror film

[@jmatrooper]

After Opera Argento he made some decent movies, but Sleepless from 2001, is his last good film. I still hope he recovers and will make another great one.

[@camhunts]

Love Giallo films they are perfect for Halloween gatherings, they are brutal but also fun and overtop which i feel gives the brutality a lightness. Useless fact: Crows actually have great memory, they are one of the smartest birds equivalent to a 7-8 year old human 😂

[@mattymac1399]

Don't Torture a Duckling is a special movie. Love to Marc Porel, Barbara Bouchet and Tomas Milian.

[@ArgentoFan]

I love Argento, Profondo Rosso has to be my favourite.

[@christophfaulkner7295]

I can see why many would say that Opera was the last of his great films. I would give that crown to Trauma. An incredibly underrated film and was equally as good as Opera.

[@alfredodiaz3575]

Can anyone explain why in Argento's films the sound mixing feels like there is a disconnect or it's out of synch? I felt it specially with Opera

[@shawnthompson5166]

I love the Giallo Homage comedy The Editor from astron6. Big fun

[@matthewtrammell3936]

Great vido, TKC. I wonder if you're a fan of the Powell/Pressburger film "Peeping Tom?" Similar themes re: voyeurism but much more psychological. It basically ruined Michael Powell's career due to being so controversial upon release

[@TheKinoCorner]

I love that film and I've wanted to make a video on it since I saw the new restoration earlier this year. I'm just one guy, though, so I'm not able to make all the videos I want.

[@camhunts]

Peeping Tom is such an intense creepy film 🎥 the suspense that builds as he is videotaping his victims before he strikes. I think it was 1960ish, so that must've ruined audiences at the time 😂

[@Horror-Man]

First saw this film way back in 2018. A year or two later, I heard a song called Opera by the band Surf Curse. Reading the lyrics made me 90% convinced that it's about this film, but I'm still not 100% sure. Great song, though.

[@yggdrasil2]

A group of ravens is called a "conspiracy of ravens" iirc.

[@thevfxmancolorizationvfxex4051]

You should do a review of Ken Russell's The Devils

[@seanramsdell4117]

Glad I saw OPERA on Mubi

[@jomama5186]

Thank you for the recommendation. I think the older movies were more works of art, than today's heavily computerized, filtered, nonsense. No more of the good stuff. It's rough.

[@yggdrasil2]

The original ending reminds me a lot of the ending to Red Dragon. Was this movie before or after the book?

[@chloe41120]

This movie is on Tubi, FYI

[@JoshAronoff]

Hell yeah Ween

[@mesosaIpinx]

Happy holokino

[@Starkweather133]

Ah! It’s the fermented Greenland shark music!

[@Monkey_lives_in_Krajina]

Here is a movie I would recommend you watch "Rane" (The Wounds),a 1998 Serbian crime drama directed by Srđan Dragojević,same guy behind Pretty village pretty flame and We are not angels triology,movie is basicly about 2 kids who live in blocks of new belgrade during the Yugoslav Wars,their nation is destroyed by propaganda,politics,sanctions,the failure of socialist goverment under Milošević and most improtantly rising crime rates,crime rates so high that the 2 then 11 year,Pinki and Švabo, olds become criminals themselfs

[@iseepoo]

@kino Corner wheres the movie with charls carroll???

Didn’t this have a heavy metal soundtrack

[@lingusdingua4889]

Argento = Hemingway Fulci = Faulkner

[@rickc2102]

gialli not gialle, hehe great video, great subject

[@madforpotprof]

(i thought that "the cursed movie that forced us to watch" was "Infinite Jest" 😅 but obviously this is a movies channel and not a books one lol)

[@enriccoc7794]

I love Giallo! Bava may be my favorite director

[@jayuteevee]

If you like corners so much then name one corner.

[@maattthhhh]

I just learned of Argento from this video, and it's making me question if he inspired the author of the 1991 Japanese light novel, Perfect Blue. I say this because the anime adaptation, Perfect Blue (1998) is my most favorite anime movie. Plus there's Argento's other work, Deep Red. These connection is...fascinating.

[@----t----1234]

Definitely his last great film, I like it better than Tenebre personally which I think is the most overrated Argento. I don’t think it’s well structured although for a stylized film that’s not a big point against it, killers identity might as well be inconsequential which I felt was similar to Tenebre.

[@EverSinceMyExorcism]

Nice Kamala reference. That's the only time that phrase made sense.

[@skylerringfield2337]

I love this movie! I get some of the hate, but the things people criticize are often what sells me. Lol

[@americanpancakelive]

I love horror movies, finally saw Longlegs which I feel is a perfect horror movie. Other perfect horror movies, to me, Hereditary, The Shining, Scanners, Bone Tomahawk, just to name a few but, boy, Opera looks mind numbingly dumb, the police are fooled by a dummy place in a fire??? What the fukkity f*ck?? I have seen a number of Argento films that I know entertained me at the time but I seriously cannot remember the names except Suspiria. Nice video.

[@jacquiwilliamson7423]

The only decent film he did was demons

[@Borsuk3344]

What a terrible dubbing.

[@TheOverlordOfProcrastination]

Sorry, Phenomena is bloody awful.

[@MrFrosty_1]

I'm 4 days late and not 5 minutes into the video smiling ear to ear about Phenomena @thekinocorner 😢😢 is right needs to be re-evaluated soundtrack is like Bavas Demon films just absolutely gory ffhn... I've never seen opera Will now want to watch
