Sleepless

Argento's late return to the giallo, with Max von Sydow as a retired detective and a genuine nursery-rhyme killer.

WATCHknown

Opera

Argento's last great film, and the needles taped under the eyes are the image of his career.

WATCHknown

Four Flies on Grey Velvet

The third of Argento's Animal Trilogy, and the least seen because it was legally locked away for decades.

WATCHknown

The Cat o' Nine Tails

The middle of Argento's Animal Trilogy, and the one he liked least. A blind man and a reporter chase a killer.

WATCHknown

Inferno

The Suspiria sequel. Less coherent, more beautiful, and has the best underwater sequence Argento shot.

WATCHknown

Phenomena

Jennifer Connelly communicates with insects at a Swiss boarding school, and there is a chimpanzee with a razor.

WATCHknown

Tenebrae

Argento's last great giallo, and the one with the three-minute crane shot up the side of a house.

WATCHknown

The Bird with the Crystal Plumage

Argento's debut, and the film that turned the giallo into an export industry.

WATCHknown

Deep Red

Argento's best. Goblin's score does half the work and is fully aware of it.

WATCHcanon

Suspiria

Barely a plot and possibly the most beautiful horror film ever shot.
