i disagree
i wasn't a big fan of TRAUMA
THE CARD PLAYER was ok
GIALLO is not a good film really, which is probably why he disowned it
DO YOU LIKE HITCHCOCK? - a very good and quite gory tv film
MOTHER OF TEARS - said before i enjoyed this despite some mad scenes
THE STENDAHL SYNDROME - underrated giallo
PHANTOM OF THE OPERA - the reason why Argento made this as there were some reviews stating hes made one OPERA so why this, is because the '43 version was the first horror film he saw and wanted to adapt his version and i like his film again despite some mad scenes
SLEEPLESS is an underrated giallo imo as i was longing to see this film for some time
PELTS and JENIFER are very good - like the former better
DRACULA - remains to be seen but i'll end up buying the dvd eventually |
A fair summing up and one i agree with nearly 100%
I quite enjoyed
Giallo myself. A decent thriller, totally different from his older works.
