Not only one of Argento's best but probably one of the best films to be inspired by 'The Phantom of the Opera'. Such a shame Argento went completely insane when he decided to make a direct adaptation of Leroux's novel.
There is a big diff between Argento/Giallo style and the American horror movie. I love Argento and what he does, but I think you get a creepier feeling from movies like Evil Dead, The Exorcist and so on. But Argentos are much much more violent, even then American slashers (well most of em) Its diff strokes for diff folks..I love it all. I started with mainstream horror then found Argento and Fulci and other goodies..But I still like my roots..its the same as a metal fan liking Metallica but..
Suspiria and Deep Red are amazing, inferno is cool too. But Demons and Opera as one of the greatest horror films of all time? I dont know about that. I think Exorcist, Halloween, Night Of The Living Dead, Evil Dead etc are better than Opera and Demons, but we all have our opinions and it takes all kinds.
I agree with you though that Argento is an AMAZING cinematographer (or was anyways). Argento rules.
Im sure many people would agree with you. I myself just prefer less hollywood big budget films.
80's horror in my oppinion was the best era for horror films for me just because they were more brutal and dark than they were in 70's backed by the popularity of heavy metal music which was popular at the time.
That is why I prefer Opera, demons, inferno, night of the demons over a lot of films that came out in the late 70's.
One of the most rock and roll horror movies of the 80s!

Take an English class and then make a critical analysis on a masterpiece of the Giallo genre.
Thank you.

I wouldn't call it shit, but its certainly not his masterpiece, which I believe to be Deep Red...
Opera is also not as good as Suspiria, though I love them all...

I really want to see this. Over the last few months I have become a Huge Argento fan. It's kind of hard to find his movies though.
