Phenomena
Aroview: Argento once again forgoes plot to concentrate on his strengths, namely stalk and slash set pieces and kinetic visuals staged like a bad dream. VHS is Creepers, the 82m version.

2 stars (Good Try) This one bugged me. Argento monkeys around with his formula too much. The worst part is a decent '80s metal soundtrack that never matches the visuals. ~Pearce
3 stars (Good Enough) This may not be one of Argento's best, but Jennifer Connelly is always worth the price of admission, and there is a particularly nasty scene in a pit that makes Poltergeist look like childs play. ~trauma_hound412
DVD Features
DVD is the fully restored, original Phenomena (116m), and makes for a considerably stronger film, although it's still typical Argento incoherent. The finale is one of the strongest and strangest in his canon.
Includes the documentary "An Eye for Horror".
