Director Dario Argento, Horror, Not Rated, Italy, Italian with English subtitles, 1987, 88 min.

Rarely do we indulge in horror films but there’s nothing else like OPERA—the brilliantly deranged giallo spectacle from Dario Argento (SUSPIRIA). Argento’s giallo take on Phantom of the Opera with balletic camera work, Verdi’s glorious “Macbeth’, black-gloved hands wielding razor-sharp knives, blood, and eroticism. All the prerequisites of a giallo. Described by one critic as, ‘a magnificently twisted, deliriously accomplished mix of high and low art’ Beautifully restored in 4K, OPERA is returning to the big screen for the first time in decades. Do not miss this brand-new 4K print.

Directed by Dario Argento, the undisputed master of ‘giallo’. For those unfamiliar, ‘giallo’ is the pinnacle of the Italian murder mystery genre that often contains slasher, thriller, psychological horror, sexploitation, and, less frequently, supernatural horror elements. Expand your horizons, slash your inhibitions, and see some gialli.
