If you knew Argento like I did, this movie would be boring for you. It was for me. I still own it, of course, on DVD. And it has its' moments. But, it's almost zero style. Instead, it's more historic and ancient and museum-like. Dusty. Decrepit. Maybe celtic in some ways. It's a city movie that focuses more on architecture and old things. Very religious. But more in terms of culture. Churches, boring dialogue with Priests. It's very The Omen-like (I don't know about the remake, I mean the original). If you enjoyed that movie and the sequel Damien: Omen II, you might really like this one. Anyway, here's the trailer (in case you haven't seen it) (my new Rule does not apply for putting the trailer in Opinion threads : It has some good qualities though. Mostly just funny scenes. There are a few. And I liked the ending. But the beginning sucks. So, be prepared for that. The first 20 minutes at least are really slow. And not in Argento's classic way.
