zacharyherickson Another great Dario Argento film, with the actress (Daria Nicolodi), who he uses the most in his horror films. Dario Argento's serial killer slasher comeback, still in the Giallo Era, as much as ever. Never underestimate the power of older horror films. If you loved Profondo rosso, Suspiria, and Inferno, you'll love this one just as much! All of Dario Argento's motion pictures, are good from 1970 (when he started directing) to 1990. After those decades, his movies are worthless trash compactor worthy films. Through those time periods, Dario Argento was an amazing Giallo film director, who mastered that genre, and artistically bloody style. This has an early 80s styled disco or pop sounding soundtrack, which has lots of creepy scores, just like all of his other soundtracks. Seems all of his movie soundtracks are by Goblin, or Claudio Simonetti, who is part of Goblin, that progressive rock soundtrack music score band group. Another Argento must see, for horror film fans!
Stephen Pearce What can say about what is not only one of Dario Argentos best films but also,in my view,the best Italian Giallo horror film of all time?...well lets see.The story is as follows...Peter Neal(an excellent Anthony Franciosca)has travel-ed to Rome to promote his new horror novel "Tenebrae" when things starting going wrong....first his suitcase go missing....and then news spreads around the city that someone is brutally killing young women in the style featured in the book....but just who is the killer....and can Peter Neal find them?"Tenebrae"is a brilliant but rather gory eighties horror masterpiece.Photographed by Luciano"Suspiria"Tolvoli and played out to a fantastic Goblin score it remains a classic of it's time and a must of all giallo fans.
toyman1967 I just got done watching this mess of a film and felt that I just HAD to write a review on it. Why does this film have such a high rating? The acting is horrible, the editing is rotten and the "twist" I figured out within the first fifteen minutes. Other users talk about how bloody this movie is and the amount of nudity is in it. I must have been watching a whole different version because the one I was watching had very little nudity and hardly any blood, except at the end, and a victim has her hand or arm cut off, not in the version I saw. I watched a version called Tenebre, not Unsane, on Amazon Prime and it said it was unrated but I think it was HORRIBLY cut. I have watched only one other Argento movie and that being Cat O'Nine Tails and that one was bad as well. I saw that this movie had such a high rating from viewers that I should give it a try. WRONG!!! I've seen better acted movies from Troma films. If this is what Italian Gallo is, I'll just stick to my American films.
gwnightscream Dario Argento's 1982 horror film stars Anthony Franciosa, John Saxon, Darla Nicolodi and Ania Pieroni. Franciosa plays Peter Neal, an American, best-selling author who travels to Rome, Italy to promote his new horror-mystery novel, "Tenebrae." Soon, a mysterious killer starts slaughtering some of the people Peter knows just like in the novel. Saxon (A Nightmare on Elm Street) plays Peter's agent, Bullmer, Nicolodi not only plays Peter's assistant, Anne, but was also married to Argento at the time and Pieroni (House by the Cemetery) plays attractive thief, Elsa who is one of the victims. This isn't a bad Italian horror flick (except for the dubbing) featuring a decent cast, good, bloody effects and great score. If you like horror or mystery flicks, give this a try.
