Director: 
Dario Argento

SYNOPSIS: 

Diana, a girl who works as an escort, is chased by an attacker on board a van, who turns out to be a murderer of prostitutes. The girl, in an attempt to escape, is involved in a car accident and when she wakes up she is told that she has lost her sight.

REVIEW: 

First part is good, it seems to return to the atmosphere and style of Italian thriller/horror cinema from fifty years ago and this is a good thing, we immediately recognize the unmistakable style of Dario Argento, good Asia Argento and Ilenia Pastorelli... but then the collapse begins! When the whole story is reduced to running away from the murderer, we enter the paradoxical and inexplicable, such as to provoke contrasting reactions from laughter to indignation. Dialogues so simple that they seem written by a child. Tragicomic ending, but still a particular film that in my opinion must be seen.

The well The well

2024

The twilight settings and the acting performances even of the minor roles are very appreciable, some scenes in the finale give a touch perhaps unintentionally funny that I personally appreciate a lot in horror films. A simple but well-crafted story, with realistic dialogues, the long gore scenes in the film could disturb those like me who do not appreciate them but prefer dark atmospheres and mystery, which are not lacking anyway. A low-budget production that does not disappoint but rather transports us to the past of an Italian genre cinema that is now almost defunct.

The Pope's Exorcist

2023

An investigative horror/thriller with strong supernatural undertones, but for those expecting something similar to the famous 1973 Exorcist, you will be disappointed, this is a much lighter product and I say thank goodness! The entire staging is on the shoulders of a self-deprecating, charming and effective protagonist, aided by a bass drum of special effects especially in the second part, arriving at an almost grotesque ending. Ultimately I would say a film with a high level of entertainment and often even funny that does not want to offer anything more than that.

Piove

2022

The film makes us sink into the life of a family in disarray, where anger and depression take over. In the background a gray, rainy, embittered Rome. Horror that goes deep, both to scare and to make you think, a genre of film that is rarely seen and innovative. Beautiful photography and excellent performances.

Imaginary

2024

A rather basic film, almost for children, calling it horror is not really appropriate, because it is not scary, but this could also be forgiven and still enjoy a teddy bear not evil enough if it were not such a boring and slow film with weak and insignificant characters. In short, badly acted and made. To forget.

The menù

2022

Culinary horror that serves us a ferocious satire on social inequality and the vulgar opulence of the rich, mocking the world of conceptual/molecular cuisine where you eat very little and spend a lot. What should have been an exclusive dinner turns into carnage under the crazy direction of a great, funny and at the same time glacial Ralph Fiennes. The tension is growing and the twists follow one another repeatedly. Surprising until the last scene. All the actors are excellent. A must see.

Maxxxine

2024

The film is the last chapter of a trilogy that always stars the talented Mia Goth, here supported by a great cast of actors, especially Kevin Bacon. A thriller with horror veins super colorful and sunny that among cult songs of the 80s, pays homage to classics of the genre such as "Psycho" and "Red Light Murder". The female protagonist, ambitious, cynical, ruthless and desperate, with a veil of sadness always on her is hypnotic enough to be the perfect FinalGirl to admire and love despite the things she says: "I always wanted to be famous!" - "I will not accept a life...
