An American college student in Rome and his sister in New York investigate a series of killings in both locations where their resident addresses are the domain of two covens of witches.

“Dario Argentou0026#39;s Inferno is full of that Argento flare that his fans love. You know what Iu0026#39;m talking about: beautiful set pieces, colorful imagery, and chock full of the red stuff. Inferno opens with a backstory on the Three Mothers. It actually made me dig Suspiria more now that thereu0026#39;s some mythology surrounding it. It expands upon the elements of Suspiria and really does a good job of sucking the viewers who are familiar with Suspiria right in. Itu0026#39;s too bad that somewhere along the way he lost me. It became a bit incoherent towards the end and the viewer is left with several questions. Will these questions be answered one day? Only Dario knows. I feel that I canu0026#39;t fully review the film because it is the middle of a story. Argento really needs to finish this trilogy. Iu0026#39;m not his biggest fan but I would like to know how the story ends and see what the final Mother has in store for us. If you enjoyed Suspiria, you should check out Inferno. But be prepared to be frustrated.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eNote for genre buffs: Mario Bava shot the underwater scenes that are featured near the beginning of the film.”
