PHENOMENA

Dario Argento changed the course of horror history with movies like DEEP RED and SUSPIRIA. But his greatest achievement was deciding to pit Jennifer Connelly, Donald Pleasence, and a cute monkey against a horde of killer insects. With a little bit of CARRIE, a touch of Nancy Drew, and a whole lot of black-gloved giallo mayhem, PHENOMENA is Argento’s finest entry in the coked-out, anything-goes sweepstakes of 1980s horror. From the shocking violence to the songs by Iron Maiden, this movie was made to be watched by a theater full of appreciative maniacs. This means us.
