I think anyone new to the film (and many in the UK haven't seen it as it's not been out since VHS days) might benefit more from member perspectives about what's cool about this incredibly visual horror epic so how about some thoughts on that?

One of my favourite moments is a small one - the camera pushing through the curtains and suddenly we're in that incredible library - some well judged and restrained (unusual in this film) music as well. For me you'd be hard pushed to find such a mood-setting scene in a modern horror film.
There are so many good moments in Inferno.
The "story" makes Suspiria look logical so best concentrate on the stunning visuals.
The early scene of the girl in the underwater cellar is one of Argentos best ever.

I found Inferno to be genuinely frightening the first time I saw it - you never quite know what is going to be around the next corner.
Suspiria is awesome but I think Inferno has a lot more memorable scenes .
You just have to forget the nonsense story and enjoy the ride

Hope we will be getting a cracking surround track for this one .
