This is Dario Argento’s largest budget production as well as his most commercially successful film to date. A visually grandiose spectacle from the opening moment, inside a majestic opera house, to the bizarre sunlit final shot in the rolling Swiss hills. A young operatta is stalked by a deranged fan bent on killing the people associated with her to claim her for himself. The strength of the memorable images showcase the talents of a master of horror still at the top of his game.
