 Rating:  - A Night At the Opera (No Day at the Beach)I've always found there to be something unsettling about operas. I don't know if it's the often-dark themes of murder, suicide, and betrayal, the tragic endings, or the lovely voices that, after three hours, sometimes seem to morph into migraine-inducing caterwauling. Given my taste in films, theater, and books, I suspect the latter. It's not that I don't appreciate the opera, I just need for it to be in smaller doses. Which is exactly what I got in Dario Argento's 1987 thriller, "Opera". Set ...

I happened across Suspiria one night on cable. "Love at first sight" is the only pertinent phrase to describe the feeling. That is how I discovered Italy's macabre national treasure, Dario Argento. Since then we've crossed paths often, be it his collaborations with personal hero George Romero, the B-movies he's produced ...

She is now playing Lady Macbeth after the previous female lead is hurt. There's rumors circulating that the play is in fact cursed. Betty, soon finds herself stalked by what appears to be a crazed fan. Or a maniac with his own twisted agenda. I said it before and I'll say it again. Argento is a master when it comes down to style in his horror. Fans of horror who understand that mindless gore alone isn't horror. Can only ... Read More Rating: - OperaThis film reminds me of The Phantom of The Opera, then the killings begun. Ive got a quick question for anyone who knows this film- in the original version is there really heavy metal during the killing scenes? Its funny because you hear opera music and then metal as soon as the killings start. I enjoyed the first killing and the movie was enjoyable overall. I recommend this to fans who like the opera and horror films-if there is such a demigraphic. Browse for similar items by category:
