Director of quite possibly one of the best horror movies ever "Suspiria"! its an awesome movie. Been trying to get a hold of the sequel "Inferno" but cant find it! his body of work is cool.... his version of The Phantom of The Opera was cool also.... any other fans?

Suspiria is the best horror film ever.

I love him, Suspiria was great. My parents met him a long time ago and said that he is the sweetest guy ever, good company to be around.

I love Suspiria, I really want to see Inferno too. And I'm so excited about The Third Mother!

That's what I suspected. I gotta say that I've been surpsrised by the real-life demeanors of horror film directors such as Argento and George Romero. Their films and subjects can be rather grotesque, but in interviews, they come off as really sweet and enthusiastic about their craft.

I totally love Argento, his daughter, and his film work.

Phenomena is my favorte D.A. movie. Suspiria was okay. I just don't see all the hype about it though.

Just the music alone is enough for me to go all crazy about it.
Argento.

His movies rule!! I bought a box set and they are all brilliant. How can i get hold of the soundtracks for free?

I'm throwing out some love for Tenebre and Opera.

It's such a shame he lost his style in the 90's. The Stendahl Syndrome and Trauma were okay, but everything he directed after that was tripe (yes, Phantom of the Opera, I'm looking in your direction.)

I cant wait for The Third Mother!!! Its gonna rule!!!! Tenebrae is wicked... i found the stendhal syndrome highly distubing tho

ugh. opera made me nervous through the whole movie. that first murder scene where the lead's "boyfriend" is killed is one of the creepiest movie moments ever.

The best death in a Dario movie is defo the opening death scene of Suspiria... it is creepy

i had to revive this thread, i adore argento i love all his movies except phenomana which is apalling. favourites are bird with the crystal plumage, stendhal syndrome and suspiria which does have the best opening death scene ever! and i love the music to it, the song in deep red though gets stuck in my head and drives me mad.
i love tenebrae too, that 5 minute shot scaling the house is amazing and the death scenes are so weirdly beautiful. i did an argento photoshoot where i got dressed as the first victem in tenebrae and had to lie in a freezing studio in a big white shirt, with loads of fake blood and limbs at weird angles, they went to sleep after a while.

I loved suspiria. I heard Deep Red is also really good. I wanna see that.

I own both. And they are both nuts.

Deep Red complements Antonioni`s Blow Up well. If you get a chance, watch them back to back. Same lead actor, same themes, and both directors are dope-as-fuck Italians.

Scene from Mother of Tears aka The Third Mother:

Q&A after TIFF premiere:

"Monkeys are anarchists!"


Inferno's underwater scene:

So I've finally seen The Mother of Tears and i was amazed! It was brilliant. The blood and guts were horrific and the story was well put together in order to finish the trilogy. Great to see Daria Nicolodi and Asia Argento in it. And the soundtrack as usual was brilliant! Anyone else seen it yet?

so, mother of tears is out now? can someone confirm?
big ups to Goblin!

Yup... its out to buy on DVD!
and it s brill
