Our take
Fashionably chic yet perversely lurid, this sensational directorial debut from horror maestro Dario Argento turned the Italian giallo genre into a cultural phenomenon. Eerily scored by none other than Ennio Morricone, this cult masterpiece wields its bloody skills with dazzling visual precision.
