Opera is Argento's last good film as far as I'm concerned, and it's damned good. Also, Steel Grave on the soundtrack, so good.
I didn't think Trauma was half-bad, but I can certainly tell this was a lot better.

opera is on the level of phenomena or tenebrae. but then i don't take inferno as anything near a favorite. so maybe we're not on the same argento scale. :P
I've actually not yet seen either Phenomena or Tenebrae, but thanks for the comparison. :P
do yourself a favor. :P

The amount of ads on Crackle is fucking infuriating. I'm only 46 minutes into the movie, but it's been well over an hour since I started.

I can't help it if IMDB even partially counts this movie La Nave de los Monstruos as horror. But they do, and I am watching it now. What do you want
from the 1960's? :| :| :|

That IS the guy from Copycat. And that Dennis Hopper-directed movie where Erika Eleniak gets nicely nekkid.

Betty might be the prettiest (to me) lead actress Dario's directed.

Opera was pretty good. I think I've seen the ending though, like I might've walked in on Alli watching it.
