| 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. For an attempt at explaining why I like his films, click here |

poor box office for the third mother!
|
Alan Jones writes:
"Hi Nick, It seems the early optimism over la terza madre has fizzled. Although it started off well, the film has taken less money than il cartaio at the Italian box-office. After two weeks in release it is barely anywhere to be seen and has been pulled from most cinemas. The reviews were universally poor and word-of- mouth not good. I have just come back from the Trieste science + fiction festival where I spent most of my time arguing over the demerits of the movie with practically everyone. I spoke to Dario's office today, they are being philosophical about it and hoping its international release will fare better."
