Welcome to the largest site on the internet dedicated to Dario Argento - one of the most stylish and visually imaginative director's alive today. This is not intended to be a sycophantic 'shrine' to him but a place for information and enlightenment and hopefully you will leave knowing more than when you came. There are all sorts of cool things within these pages - reviews, filmographies, biographies, interviews, slideshows, video/audio downloads and a forum.

argento uk blurays on amazon
Maybe a good sign that they are actually going to be released, all from arrow films.
Great news ... after listening to reasoned arguments from people and of course arrow films, the forthcoming bluray of inferno they are releasing will be UNCUT!
I now urge everyone to buy this from arrow. They deserve our support.
I would also like to thank the enlightened BBFC for listening.
It looks like arrow films are releasing inferno on bluray in the uk in august. However, it will be cut due to the law in this country which does not allow the depiction of animal cruelty.
EXCEPT of course when its an 'arty' french film! a boy kills a chicken in front of another boy in hidden and we see it flying around without a head!

Giallo
(pronounced 'djallo, plural gialli) is an italian 20th century genre of literature and film, which in italian indicates crime fiction and mystery. In the English language, however, it is used in a broader meaning that is closer to the french fantastique genre, including elements of horror fiction and eroticism.
The word giallo is Italian for "yellow" and stems from the origin of the genre as a series of cheap paperback novels with trademark yellow covers.
