Quick hit review-'OPERA'

Opera (1987)
Directed by: Dario Argento
Genre: Horror/'Giallo'

Scares: Some 'jump out' jolts, good dark atmosphere
Gore: Above average. More than a normal horror movie, and it's well done.
Story: Above average. Good story with a somewhat convoluted ending sequence.
Music: Overall, it's good. Except for the speed metal-not good.
Direction: Great camera work, moody lighting and one of the best all time kill scenes.

Overall
: 7/10
Not Argento's best, but probably his last very good movie.
