Your fave Argento flick? (Page 2 of 2)

By the titles in the poll I say:

suspiria
inferno
opera
tenebre
sleepless
bird with the cristal plumage
four flies on grey velvet
(I'm not much into the Argento's giallio side)
I haven't seen Do you like Hitchcock yet

I'm surprised that deep red is not in the poll

I agree with you horror virgin; my all time fav beyond athe shadow of a doubt
The theme scared the crap out of me,and also now it gives me goosebumps!
Suspiria is going to be remade?
I only hope they won't ruin the flick

I can't wait for "The third mother" to come out!!

I forgot about Deep Red. I have the unlimited vhs edition of it uncut and it's a great film. I can't believe I forgot to add that to the poll.

Suspiria hands DOWN!!

I am sooo jazzed for the third and final part of the Three Mothers trilogy: Tierza Madre!! 

The reviews for it have been excellent and I've been dying for this film to come out for eeons!! 
Rest assured, any hardcore Suspiria & Inferno fans HAVE to see the series finale!!!

Yeah, I really liked the arm amputation in Tenebre!  Classic!!!

Deep Red is my favorite of the ones of I've seen, followed closely by Suspiria in second place

i gotta go with Suspiria, the shots the beautiful sets lighting and awsomely creepy music make this a masterpiece!!  but its the only one of his movies i have seen except MOH Jenifer and it was awsome too

Suspiria to me, all the way with the bright lighting with red, green and blue mix in with The Goblins score makes it a masterpeice.
Deep Red close behind it, i think other than Asia, David Hemmings is another actor that Argento worked with delivered good acting in one of his movies.
Bird w/ a Crystal Plumage is one of the best giallo's movies with one of the best overlooked twist endings.
And my first introduction to discovering Argento was Phenomena aka Creepers, similar in a way to Suspiria with a young lead actress and instead using bright colors in this, he used more natural lighting for this which i think brings it out beautifully.
I was very disapointed that there wasnt a Four Flies on a Grey Velvet out there that i can view and is one of the movies i need to complete my Argento Animal Trilogy collection, i hope Paramont choose to release this on dvd.
Last time i heard like a year ago that Paramont have the rights to the film and said they have no plans to release it and im disapointed in that.
Other good ones are
Do U like Hitchcock?  Argento's tribute to Hitchcock's Rear Window
and Sleepless was another good giallo film as well.

I have Sleepless but I have it as Nonhosonno and it's uncut. Thats a good one with Max Von Sydow. The kids mother gets killed by the dwarf killer...

It's 1hr 52 min. It says Uncut on DVD cover plus has Making of Featurette and trailers.

Weird... does it actually run that long? or does it just say that on the cover?

...without waking you up even once.
