Italian filmmaker Dario Argento's horror films have been described as a blend of Alfred Hitchcock and George Romero--psychologically rich, colorful, and at times garish, excelling at taking the best elements of the splatter and exploitation genres and laying them over a dark undercurrent of human emotions and psyches.
Broken Mirrors/Broken Minds, which dissects such Argento cult films as
Two Evil Eyes,
The Bird with the Crystal Plumage,
Suspiria, and
Deep Red, includes a new introduction discussing Argento's most recent films, from
The Stendahl Syndrome to
Mother of Tears; an updated filmography; and an interview with Argento.
