I hate to say it but Argento has lost it. You can hate on Diary and Land all you want but those films are masterpieces compared to this thing. Argento has sadly lost his touch. I had to turn it off after about 20 minutes. It was just bad. Argento used to make horror and gore an art form. The first 20 minutes was just cheesy and very sad.
SPOILER ALERT!!!!
The movie lost me after the crazy monkey and gargoyle people kill the chick from Demons 2. It made no sense and was completely rediculous.
And the scene where the woman throws the baby off the bridge. I'm not one to be easily offended by something like that, BUT that was just too much. Tasteless. Something I thought I'd never say about Argento's work. If it was done effectively and with some sort of taste, it'd be okay. But, it was just... dumb. and un called for... I turned it off after that.
I'd say Argento's stuff has gone downhill since Trauma in 93. Can't say im a fan of Newer Argento. But films like Deep Red, Suspiria, and Tenebrae are FOREVER CLASSICS in my book.
