Les Frissons de l'angoisse

What's the big damn deal with this film? I've got five words about Dario Argento: Don't always believe the hype. I know I'm not the only horror fan that thinks Argento is a tad too overrated. It seems like the Argento films I enjoy are the ones that aren't so well received by everyone else. And the ones I hate, are the most well known and well loved. This movie is the strongest example of this. Deep Red is confusing, terribly hard to follow, and just plain boring. The pace crawls along l-i-k-e...t-h-i-s. Just like Suspiria, this movie starts with a bang and slowly dwindles away...along with your sanity. It's sad when I'm watching the DVD counter waiting for a film to end. I hated this movie. I think I'm going to start a scale based on how many fingers I would chop off just to never see this crap again. On the fingers scale, Deep Red gets a 7. That may sound harsh, but it's my honest opinion. But, my comments are to no avail because, just like I did, you will probably ignore the two negative comments and listen to everyone else and rent this movie.
