| 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 |

more la terza madre news!
|
Claudio simonetti has posted on his own forum some information about his score and the film in general:
http://simonetti.forumcommunity.net/?t=6086692
a rough translation is:
* the music is finished and the mixing of the italian and english tracks has just been done
* Simonetti worked almost 4 months on the soundtrack...there are some nods in this music to Jerry Goldsmith, Bernard Herrmann, Carl Orff...its style is classical and also a bit Gothic, especially in the use of a choir...Simonetti is very proud of his music, one of his most beautiful and accomplished.
* the cinematography is dark but beautiful and full of colours at the same time!
* the film is full of action and violence (Walter Fasano's editing is very good) with many different locations...the scene(s?) in the catacombs are very good.
* the film is full of Lee Wilson's digital effects and Sergio Stivaletti's effects.
* the witches are very, very sexy!
* there is one of Dario's most striking shots in his whole career, a 4 minute and 10 second sequence without cuts (?) when Asia's character is entering an old house.
