Great variety in killings although the axe gets overused in the end. Not sure what the dream girl was about. The problem I have with these films is I can't tell whether the imagery is some big directorial vision or just pretentious BS. So are the topless women symbolic of sexuality or just boobs for me to gawk at until they're conveniently disposed? Is that upskirt meant for me to question my POV or just to tease? Fav scene: axe chopping off hand and spraying blood in an arc on the white wall.

Not as outlandish as Opera and not as grounded as The Bird with the Crystal Plumage, Tenebre still packs enough punch to make you lament the loss of that bright red colored blood that makes you hungry for beets. That’s a lot of punch because who likes beets? I hate this review.

Probably enjoyed this more than the other Argento movies I've seen but there are just some of his trademarks that I don't think I'll ever come to appreciate.

Very decent, if you like Dario Argento. Which I do. A slightly fanciful "whodunit" is delivered via some nice camerawork, colour and styling, and a number of interesting themes are touched upon, if not explored in any great detail. Most of the cast here are present in order to be bumped off in spurts of bright red blood, but a few performances have some charm. And the music by some ex-Goblin types is typically full of character. Like a good episode of Murder She Wrote, with gore and Italians.

More Argento that's very typical of Argento, no deviation from the standard formula. He perhaps outdoes himself in the number of grisly deaths and the variety of ways in which random cast members get sliced and diced. A rare highlight: the dog sequence. There's little rhyme or reason or much of a plot to keep you interested, just the usual twist with exposition finally. You must have to really be a fan of the stylised gore and macabre, voyeuristic killings, to get much a kick out of this film.

As I've found with all of Argento's films the story makes little sense and the are giant plot holes and lapses in logic. The dialogue and acting are also really terrible. The movie is strangely watchable even with all of it's faults and this time around I actually liked the Goblin soundtrack. There isn't a lot of gore or blood at least not until the final 10 minutes and even then it's not all that bad.

Tenebre is a fine film I can appreciate on many different levels. One of my least favorite film genres is probably crime drama. This caused me to enjoy the movie less. Still the mystery and violence helped me stay engaged. It is easy to see Tenebre and Suspiria used the same cinematographer. Other than this, the only strong link I recognized was the dog scene. I loved when the dog is about to jump an extra high fence and takes a few steps back to compensate. Clearly Air Bud was inspired by this.
