To coincide with the presentation of Dario Argento's new film, Dark Glasses (Occhiali Neri), at the 2022 edition of Fantasia, we are presenting, in collaboration with the festival and the Italian Institute of Culture in Montreal, eight of the filmmaker's previous films, which together testify to the way in which this prolific Italian master of terror has never ceased to experiment, formally and thematically. From his major contribution to the giallo genre at the beginning of his career to the horror cinema of the 2000s, through the supernatural phase initiated with Suspiria, this cycle allows us to revisit a work in perpetual evolution, with incisive direction and delightful international casts, including the complete Three Mothers trilogy: Suspiria, Inferno and Mother of Tears.
