Opera
Directed by Dario Argento
A stalker torments an opera star by forcing her to watch her friends being murdered in one of giallo horror god Dario Argento’s most terrifying films. When young operetta Betty is thrust into a leading role in Verdi’s Macbeth, she’s unprepared for the carnage that’s going to be unleashed. Soon enough she’s being stalked by a black-gloved killer who loves tieing Betty up and taping needles around her eyes so she - and by extension us - are forced to watch the vicious slayings. The great Brian Eno and Goblin’s Claudio Simonetti composed the stellar score.

Argento goes totally wild on this one!! Loved it!
It's a pretty good movie, though (unpopular opinion;) not one of my favorites of Dario Argento's films. I feel like too much happened in the last ten minutes of the movie that should have been a bit more spread out time-wise, which made it seem almost silly. that's the only reason i give it 3 stars instead of 4.
shit was FIRE
One of Argento's best and finest films! By far one of (if not the most) suspenseful and jarring and stress inducing (in all the greatest ways possible) yet also so beautiful and lulling between the visuals and every frame being a beautiful visual masterpiece and the amazing score!
Quite possibly his best just a chaotic ride
