how bout the tree rape scene? that's an all time classic!
Inferno has no plot! I don't mind movies without plots but this one was boooring. Without doubt, Suspiria is the best from Argento. BTW, the trilogy was never finished.
the trilogy exists... check out my response to sir funk... and what do you mean no plot... it definately had a plot and it involved mother lachrymarum (the mother of tears)... maybe you should watch it again! (i agree it got a bit boring somewhere in the middle though)
It took me a while to find Necromantik but finally I did. It was on the back corner of a small, dark video. A rare find. Check this out: in one mind-blowing scene, the lover (the corpse) loses its... member and they replace it with... a pipe
ok i MUST see that film... if i don't i haven't lived!
You have gotten the attention of the mysterious lady. She turns to face you. Her face is devoid of any flesh. You are frozen with horror as she begins ripping your body into a bloody mess.

My remark was not directed to anyone in particular. Just to anyone that doesn't understand what JAStaff1 had to do.
OK. It's early and I haven't had enough caffeine yet... "that link"?? Refresh my memory.
Oh yeah, oh yeah! Now I remember.

I'm certainly in need of more caffeine! In fact, I'm going to ask my secretary if she can bring me a cup of coffee. Well, she's not my secretary... she's the recepcionist and she hates when I do that
the trilogy exists...
No, Panayotis Tenebrae has nothing to do with Mother Tenebrarum, that's why it's very different from the other two. I'm positive.

according to dark dreams (link above) it is the third part of the trilogy

Well, they're wrong. According to Dario Argento, the trilogy isn't finished yet
Fang: Inferno is very open-ended. Will you make the third part of the trilogy?
Argento: Not immediately, but hopefully soon. It's very difficult to prepare a movie like that.
Nicolodi: We've finished the script for the third but there are a few things we are still working on to perfect the project, a couple of special effects and locations, that sort of thing.
Argento: The third part will deal with the Mother of Tears.
Fang: I wondered since Ania Pieroni (who makes a fleeting appearance as the Mother of Tears in Inferno) is killed in Tenebrae.
Argento: No, that's not meant to be a film joke or hint. It's not important to me to keep the same actress in the role. The idea is the same but perhaps the character can change her appearance, who knows?

he's wrong then! oh well you would expect the info on the official site to be accurate (unless i misinterpreted smth)... if the trilogy is not yet finished but is planned to be then even better cause i'd like to see a more suspiriaesque 3rd part

Ah, that's what I meant. I just didn't get my words right... Anyway, the movie was hardly scary with today's measures and the effects and plot were a little laughable, but I enjoyed it all the way through. And yes, it was the original version I saw. The TV announcer was all worked up about this movie and said stuff like how lucky we were to have tuned in to see it, and he went on and on about how revolutionary it was in a lot of ways.

i think it depends on the interpretation of the word zombie... giving the actual meaning, ie a dead person who's come back to life, then probably NOTLD isn't the first one... but like you said, NOTLD was the first one that introduced a zombie as we know it (and they don't always eat just brains!)

enjoying the movie is what matters... cause actually there's no movie i can find scary* anymore, especially the older ones... i mean Suspiria is contemplated as one of the scariest movies ever, but there was no point that i found scary whatsoever... but it was great nonetheless... i remember being scared as a kid when i watched The Shining (the original w/ jack nicolson)... from the newer movies, Stephen King's Rose Red is the one i could say came closer to being scary... had some awesome moments
* "scary" as in SCARY, not as in using_abrupt_scenes_to_startle

you've watched it? wasn't it FANTASTIC... i mean it had me stunned at some points... especially in the house at night! and that rarely happens too me, i usually enjoy such a movie relaxed, devouring bags of potato chips and chocolate! (lights off always of course)

haven't seen the japanese version of ring (not a chance finding it here)... i'm waiting for the new version to be released... rose red's ending was more or less how i expected it to be... can't say i liked it but wouldn't say it bothered me that much... don't remember poltergeist, been years since i last saw it
btw speaking of japanese films, i saw The Eye on sunday... and i liked it, and i also liked the ending a lot... and that "you're sitting on my chair" scene......!

Yes, I've watched it! Yes, it was fantastic! Watched it with chocolate (the food of goddesses) and the lights off!!
Was the house in Rose Red related to that house in California? The one where the lady said "spirits" told her to keep building and she kept building on to the house for the rest of her life?

Remember that scene where the guy torns his face apart in the bathroom? Well, for about 2 weeks after watching this movie, each time I went to bed I was seeing his face in a corner of my room

I took a tour of that house last year!!! Wasn't as cool as the movie, though. :'(
