35. Sleepless (Non ho sonno)

Explicit content warning

10/22/21 • 57 min

The coats are cozying up and getting ready to stay up all night to talk about Dario Argento's 2001 giallo: "Sleepless". Argento returns to the sub-genre with his bag of tricks and his ol' pals Goblin for a film that hearkens back to the golden age of his career and the giallo boom. This will also be the final installment in our Argentathon series (yes, we know we skipped a couple, but only to save your ears), which means we'll also be giving our rankings of Argento's entire giallography. What will take the #1 spot? The #2? The #3? Listen in as the coats coo over the maestro's masterpieces and cuss at the cud.

34. The Stendhal Syndrome

The coats are covering themselves in paint to further explore the condition of Argento's 1996 giallo: "The Stendhal Syndrome". Using his daughter, Asia Argento, once again to explore the blurring of reality and identity when faced with TRAUMA (but not that trauma). Often overlooked, "Stendhal" has seen a resurgence in popularity and forced many to cast their eyes on this vintage 90's horror film. Will this giallo have the coats down with the Syndrome? Or will they put on a blonde wig and try to put this all behind them?
