It's an insult to Asylum movies to compare this to an Asylum movie. BTW: can you review Howling II?

Never thought of that, but yeah, it does reminds you of a FMV-game. Except had this been a 90's FMV-game it would have at least looked more charmingly cheesy like most of those games where and it would have likely looked so much better in comparsion to this ugly Asylum/SyFy looking movie!

I would love it if you covered more of Argento's late period work, like The Card Player, Giallo, and Mother of Tears. Basically, everything he did post-Stendhal Syndrome, or post-Opera, depending on where you fall.

[@neorock7491]

He really started to lose his shit with The Stendhal Syndrome, where he began to use dubious digital and 3D effects. Some say he started to go apeshit with Phenomena or Opera (that surreal ending scene in Switzerland, pure gold), but for me it is in The Stendhal Syndrome (which is still a pretty good, vicious and terrifying psychological-horror movie) his true decline began.

Sure the story can get uneven sometimes, but it's really well made, awesome music by Goblin and awesome soundtrack by Iron Maiden and Motorhead! Before he used his daughter Asia in his movies he used his ex-wife and her mother, Daria Nicolodi, in his other classic movies. The last movie she was in was Opera.

15:25 I dont think Dario Argento has ever seen anything but a picture of a praying mantis before making this film.

Well, I haven't seen all that many of his videos, but I, uh... noticed a certain… habit of his. In almost every video: - He makes 3 or 4 points of criticism, then just reiterates/repeats those same points several times throughout the review. Sure, he makes a lot of really good one-shot jokes as well, but some things he will just repeat and repeat … - and repeat it once more before he signs off. (I know, it actually makes sense, you want to make sure your audience gets it, and emphasizing some key moments also helps to make the video memorable. - But there's usually a limit to how many times I can find the same joke funny.) Still, his stuff is great stuff. :)

One Argento film worth watching would be Phenomena. It has Jennifer Connelly in her first ever movie role. On top of that, it also inspired a cult classic horror game: 'Clock Tower' (Super Famicom / SNES). Oh, and make sure you watch the original version properly titled 'Phenomena', and not the shitty edited American version titled 'Creepers'.

[@Aster_Iris]

Seconded. It was my favorite spoopytime movie even back when all I saw was the American cut, but after seeing the full cut, it blew that out of the water (not to mention, the Creepers cut cut out a lot of great character moments and dialogue and even some plot relevant stuff which is so sad). Now, I watch it with one of my friends every Halloween. Also Phenomena easily has one of the best main protagonists in a horror film out there. She's actually really fleshed out and you really feel for her by the end of the movie. Like you're actively rooting for her, and it makes certain scenes, especially THAT one (anyone who's seen it knows the one, where once the phone drops down the hole it's time to change browser tabs or bury your face into a stuffed animal for a bit), all the more harrowing. It REALLY gets the empathy going and I love it for that. For anyone interested, the full version is up on Amazon Prime for rather cheap, would recommend it whenever you wanna watch something spooky. If one is really desperate the Creepers cut is up on KZbin via several Robin Hoods but again you're gonna miss out on a lot of good stuff, from character backstories to Professor McGregor's monologue about the Fohn wind. Would not recommend it for anyone who's squeamish regarding bugs, especially maggots, though. There's a lot of those in this film.

The only thing I can think of is how Patrick Stewart was at the top of his game some time ago but with the release of Picard there were things they changed that didn't make sense. In a way it was redconing some of universe lore and logic, things they tried to bring into the (now Picard) Star Trek universe that really didn't make any sense or that even undid previous TNG majorly epic moments such as the death of Data. Basically Patrick Stewart could do no wrong in the TNG days but now he's kind of getting push back. This has nothing to do with "TNG was better and Picard sucks" or "Picard is woke" bull💩. There are literally things in Picard that either undo established lore or undo the gravitas of previous events. And sense Patrick Stewart is campaigning the new series, if I remember correctly he's giving his "okay" for the scripts, then he's responsible for undoing a lot of those moments already established in the Star Trek series, and so he's not so loved as he once was.

I remember going on a week-long binge of Argento's 70s and 80s movies. Then I watched this movie thinking a Dario Argento vampire movie would be awesome. Sufficed to say, I was disappointed. Imagine how great this movie would have been if he made it 30 years earlier.

probably would have been one of the best vampire movies of all time if he had of made it back in the prime of his career.

How old are you, The Brandon?! You freak me out when you throw out references like Father Guido Sarducci… you just seem to young, lol?! Love your work and always look forward to the next contribution!

[@STB-jh7od]

So, Dario Argento cast his own daughter AND got Rutger Hauer to star in a Dracula softcore porn parody is what you're saying😁

[@JCLegendary]

When you put it that way it makes the movies sound better than it ever deserves.

Keep up the great work I love your videos so entertaining and I always get a good laugh from every one I watch

[@shainewhite2781]

2:25, the look on Brandon's face it look like we're on for a video to a movie well never forget!😊

The guy playing Dracula also played Van Helsing in the loosely based on the novel miniseries from 2013. Oh, and he's been in some Disney movies, too.

9:40 and now it's "Howling 2".

Update: earlier this year of the Lord 2022 A.D., Dario Argento has released another horror film called Dark Glasses (Occhiali Neri). ... It sucked. ... It bombed. ... Sigh... you'd think in 10 years after this shit he'd get his act together... I doubt he'll go out with a bang T_T

[@gallibon1319]

That's depressing.
