FOUR FLIES ON GREY VELVET Review On "Violent Maniac's Cage"

FOUR FLIES ON GREY VELVET

(Italy)

DIRECTED BY: Dario Argento.

One of Argento's first films still delivers his style and camera movements which he has become well known for. It isn't as good as his more established works but it is quite witty and ingenious how the story line flows. Some nice twists make this an enjoyable thriller fans will appreciate. It can be enjoyed all the more if it is a good quality copy unlike the one I watched. The sound silencing during certain parts, a weird hum and poor picture.

Four Flies is about a young musician who becomes the victim of a blackmail killer. Not much story you'd think but it moves along at a brisk pace with quirky characters and good pacing. You should check this out, goreless but good film. Interesting and stylish ending as well.

Rating: 3 Skulls
