Regarding Dario Argento.....
« on: June 13, 2003, 03:48:39 AM »
I just caught a short film about (not BY) Dario Argento on the Independant Film Channel......the title is "An Eye For Horror"

I'd never heard of him before I saw his films discussed here so I thought I'd mention this in case any of his fans didn't know such a film existed.

I don't know how you'd go about finding out if and when it might be shown again....don't know if it's a new production or something that's been around.....just thought I'd share.  ;)

Thanks!  Copied this on http://www.ifctv.com's schedule. What DID we do before the internet?

I don't know why I didn't see this post until now!  But I guess it doesn't matter since I'm sure I don't get the International Film Channel at my cable level.

But thanks for calling this to our attention, Luciaphil.

I am anxious to re-view "Suspiria" now that I have the Anchor Bay tape -- it looks like a wholly new movie compared to the print that SciFi ran.

I also purchased "Inferno," and was quite fascinated with it.  It's clear that every detail of every scene is carefully composed and is EXACTLY what Argento wanted on the screen.

"Tenebrae" and "Deep Red" (Profondo Rosso -- excuse my Italian) are perhaps his highest ranked after Suspiria, and I'm curious about them yet hesitant since they are supposed to have extremely bloody scenes, which is not really my cup of tea.
