Dario Argento Panico

"'Panico' may be a flawed, messy thing, but it also comes close to being an essential contribution to grasping the significance of Argento’s life and work. (...) Rating: ★★½ (out of 4)" 

"Anyone compelled by Argento’s work is sure to appreciate this in-depth profile (...) Rating: ★★★½ (out of 5)" 

"n affectionate tribute to the Italian horror filmmaker (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)" 

"It paints an essential portrait of Italian horror auteur (...) Scafidi takes an exacting look at the life of the 'Deep Red' writer/director through stunning archival footage and fresh interviews with the filmmaker" 

"This engaging, well-researched documentary contains a good deal of new material that ought to be of special interest to fans of Argento’s work, but which also contains enough flying sparks to ignite the curiosity of those unfamiliar with one of cinema’s most unique and most bewildering forces" 

"[It] isn’t quite a fully satisfying profile of the iconic filmmaker, but it at least functions as a reminder of his cult-level prestige, and as a solid primer for his strongest work" 

"Simone Scafidi's documentary portrait captures the dual essence of Dario Argento, illuminating his impact on the giallo genre whilst exploring the man behind the cinematic legacy"
