Thank you so much! Argento is one of my favorite directors, Connelly and Pleasance are legendary, and the music fits like an elbow high rubber glove that snaps when put on. The mix of Simonetti and Goblin with their haunting melodies, the crashing tempos of the masters, Motorhead and Maiden, and then Andi Sex Gang....which is some crazy shit in between. I do love the Sex Gang Children and Andi SG and I have the soundtrack on vinyl but it.s a relic now that I.d never part with. In any case, this movie was really cool and I know Argento loved the blood and gore but he also had an ability to let his audience leave some things to interpretation. Kids these days just want cheap thrills, blood and guts, and not have to interprete anything. I can.t REALLY blame them though. They live in a different world we did, with more pressures than ever. Jeez, I.m rambling. One more martini and I.m done. 🍸🍸🍸cheers and thanks! - @Friday, October 30, 2015 4:24 AM

Was Dario Argento inspired by Friday the 13th when he wrote the script? The crazy mother and the mutant son - @Thursday, August 23, 2012 10:19 AM

Gosh! I remember this movie. What a terrible horror film. I found myself laughing watching this, especially the scene where Jennifer Connelly gets her night gown hung on the gutter or something & she's just hanging on the side of the house. It's freakin' goofy! - @Thursday, August 25, 2011 2:19 AM
