OverviewThe stylistic and bloody excesses of the films of Dario Argento are instantly recognisable. Vivid, baroque and nightmarish, his films picture violent deaths in a twisted embrace with an almost sexual beauty. Hailed as one of horror cinema's most significant pioneers, Argento continues to create inimitable and feverishly violent films. His work has influenced the likes of Quentin Tarantino, John Carpenter and Martin Scorsese and his mastery of the genre is confirmed with his production of celebrated classics such as George A. Romero's Dawn of the Dead.
