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.

romero to remake deep red!
according to the cannes rumour mill, george romero is close to a deal in which he will remake deep red in 3d! However, george himself does not agree in this video interview by fangoria:
"Just announced (13/05/10), Dario Argento's DRACULA in 3D, filming in Italy January, period setting." Argento will write and direct, putting his stamp on the legend."
However this now seems to have been denied by dario himself!

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.
