blu ray argento
This flick is not my favorite argento movie but that being said it's still a good movie. This is more of a psychological thriller and that may not please some argento fans who want a straight forward giallo or murder mystery. Asia argento is a excellent actress and she carries this movie as well. The blu ray edition is a better edition than the standard one however the blu ray process really brings out the grainy style of filming. The "evil dead 2" also is this grainy and it leads to a sparkle like effect that is only slightly distracting in some scenes. Perhaps on future blu ray releases the producers can tone down the grain if a movie utilized it as a technique in filming. Personally I have never been a fan of grainy filming it's not artistic it's just grainy. But the picture is crystal clear and the movie has never looked better so it's a proud addition to my horror collection. If you enjoy murder mysteries with a psycholical theme you may enjoy this movie but if you want a straight forward murder mystery you might be more happy with 'the bird with the crystal plumage" blu ray instead.
