Horrorfest Administrator Review
One of Dario Argento’s best films.  Great story that will keep you entertained and guessing throughout.  Catchy musical score by Goblin.  Even though many parts are dubbed in English, this one is definitely worth seeing if you are any type of Horror or Suspense fan.

I figured I would plunge in and get this movie since it has been so highly rated by many horror gurus.  I can see why so many liked this one, as it has some ground-breaking traits for its time. One of the best things about this film is the musical score. The story does have some flaws and it is definitely not one of the scariest movies of all as it says on the cover, but it was still a decent horror flick to watch.
