BIRD WITH THE CRYSTAL PLUMAGE.


Damn, I don't watch this for a while and ALMOST forget how good this film is. I shan't bother with a synopsis for a film i'm betting everyone here has seen, suffice to say it was as thrilling to watch the good quality VCI blu-ray as the first time i'd seen it. The supurb soundtrack, excellent editing and cinematography and the genuinely suspenseful scenes (the 'yellow raincoats' the scene with suzy kendall being terrorized and the climactic scene in the killers apartment are all standouts) It's almost impossible to equate this standout piece of cinema with the same filmmaker that delivered sub-standard dross like Dracula 3d and Giallo. I'm thinking I need to get back to the old days where I watched this film once every six months or so and i'm definately feeling in the mood to start an Argento marathon sometime soon.
