Asia Argento, the director’s daughter and a future star in her own right, plays a detective on the trail of a serial killer, who takes advantage of her condition: entering an unconscious or fugue state upon encountering certain artwork. Infusing giallo with freshly horrific notions of trauma, Dario Argento traces the contours of her nightmare, with the help of an Ennio Morricone score, Fellini DP Giuseppe Rotunno, and paintings by Rembrandt and Brueghel.
