Written last summer, it examines Argento's entire output to date: from his earlier gialli such as The Animal Trilogy and Deep Red, through his elaborately gothic fairytales Suspiria and Inferno, right up to his more recent contributions to TV's Masters of Horror, the conclusion of his Three Mothers trilogy, Mother of Tears, and his latest thriller, Giallo. I also look at his work as producer, including titles such as George A. Romero's Dawn of the Dead, Lamberto Bava's Demons and Michele Soavi's The Church.
The book is the result of painstaking research that involved delving into Argento's entire catalogue, along with a plethora of other stylish Italian horror films that he was involved in the making of. And that was only after I managed to track down some of his more obscure titles. My copy of Maitland McDonagh's Broken Mirrors/Broken Minds: The Dark Dreams of Dario Argento rarely left my sight. By the end of this week, my book will finally be available for Argento fans to devour and hopefully enjoy. Big thanks to Chuck Norris Ate My Baby and Paracinema for their shout-outs this week. I really appreciate their support and encouragement.
