I take your point but there are many Argento films in which he embraces the fantasy element, one of which is Suspiria - 'a fairy tale for adults' as he described it. Films like Sleepless are very reality-based, as is Stendhal Syndrome, but then there are others like Inferno, Phenomena and Suspiria that almost exist in a different universe!
