Description

Collection of four late 'Giallo' features from director Dario Argento. In 'Terror at the Opera' (1987) Betty (Christina Marsillach), a young understudy at the opera house, finds herself in demand when the female lead in Verdi's 'Macbeth' falls ill. Whilst on stage, her fears about the curse of Macbeth begin to ring true as a stagehand is murdered and several ravens used in the production are killed. Betty is then taken captive by the murderer, tied up, forced to have her eyes pinned open and then witness the murder of two other people. The police inspector assigned to the job, Santini (Urbano Barberini), realises that ravens never forget and releases the remaining birds so that they can find the murderer. This leads to a chain of gory events, eventually revealing who the killer is and his connection to Betty. 'The Stendhal Syndrome' (1996) sees Asia Argento star as detective Anna Manni, on the trail of a serial killer and rapist. Unfortunately, she suffers from the Stendhal syndrome, a mental disorder causing hallucinations whenever the sufferer comes into contact with works of art. The killer discovers Manni's condition, and uses it to make her insane. Even when she thinks she has finally tracked him down and dealt with him, his taunts continue, and so do the murders. In 'Sleepless' (2001) insomaniac ex-cop Ulisse Moretti (Max von Sydow) is called out of retirement to investigate a series of violent slayings, all of which bear a resemblance to a case he worked on 17 years ago. Meanwhile, Giacomo (Stefano Dionisi), the son of one of the victims in the earlier spate of killings, learns that the murderer is at work again and decides to finally exact his revenge. In 'The Card Player' (2004) police detective Anna Mari (Stefania Rocca) becomes caught up in an Internet poker game, only to realise to her horror that the stakes are higher than she could have imagined: if she loses, the maniacal 'Card Player' will slit his victims' throats live on webcam. Irish police detective John Brennan (Liam Cunningham) is sent to Rome to join the investigation after a British tourist becomes involved. But the stakes are raised even higher when the police chief's daughter (Fiore Argento) is abducted - and it becomes apparent The Card Player knows Anna better than she thought...
