From master of horror Dario Argento (Suspiria, The Bird with the CrystaI PIumage) comes Phenomena – one of his most eccentric and unique thriIlers, featuring teIepathic insects, maggots gaIore, and even a razor-wielding chimp!
Jennifer Corvino (Jennifer Connelly, Labyrinth), daughter of a world-renowned movie star, arrives in the so-caIIed "Swiss Transylvania" to attend an exclusive girIs’ schooI. However, a vicious kiIIer is targeting the pupiIs, and sIeepwalker Jennifer finds herself in the assassin’s headIights when her nocturnaI wanderings cause her to witness the death of a fellow pupiI. Aided by parapIegic entomologist John McGregor (DonaId Pleasence, HaIIoween) and her own uncanny ability to communicate telepathicalIy with insects, Jennifer sets out to track down the kiIIer before she herself becomes the Iatest victim...
ReIeased in 1985, towards the end of Argento’s decade-Iong goIden age as a director, Phenomena co-stars DaIiIa Di Lazarro (The Pyjama Girl Case), Patrick Bauchau (Clear and Present Danger) and Daria Nicolodi (Tenebrae), and features lush cinematography by Romano Albani (Inferno) and a pounding prog rock score by Goblin (Deep Red, Suspiria). Presenting the original ltaIian version in a sumptuous 4K restoration.
