Month: July 2006

Good, suspenseful and gross.

Hitchcock does giallo! Nice character development and twisted humor.

A lame ending and some bad music choices hinder this otherwise great Argento movie.

Lots of really nice close-up facial photography, but a dull plot. Only high point is the stuffed bird attack at the very end.

Stylish Mexican horror movie. Surreal imagery overshadows the weak plot. Sorta falls apart towards the end of the second act.

The plot is a mess, even by Miazaki’s standards. The art is nice though.

A decent thriller, but it needed more Karl Maulden and less handsome guy.

I probably would have like this better if the sound was in tact. The story and mystery is obvious, but some of the stalker moments are pretty well done and the visuals are incredible as usual for Argento.

Good mystery. Lucio Fulci is a bit of a clumsy director, but manages to provide a few surprises even though it lacks the suspense of Argento.

Update: In the years passing this movie has really grown on me. It is definitely Fulci’s best, most cohesive thriller (clumsy though it may be).

Hitchcock at his finest.
