Title: Profondo rosso is Argento's apotheosis as horror master
Product review: Argento has never been better than in Profondo rosso (Deep red). The plot is cryptic, and keeps you guessing until the very end. There are some vintage performances such as the young Gabriele Lavia, in the role of the dissolute, alcoholic artist who is yet capable of giving philosophical advice. Elements designed to curdle the blood include the child's song, which the killer repeats prior to each slaying, and a sadistic little girl who likes to dismember reptiles. This is a must-see movie for all Italian horror aficionados, and together with Suspiria has the greatest cult following of all of Argento's works.
