If you’ve followed our output over the years, you know that we are big fans of Dario Argento’s films, and especially his monumental work in the giallo genre. 1982’s Tenebre is one of the genre’s most important entries, and really, one of the more interesting horror films ever made. The plot was inspired by a real-life interaction where a fan blamed Argento for the psychologically damaging effects of his films. It is a gorgeous (but brutal), classic piece of Italian genre cinema.
For the poster, we were excited to once again team up with Italian illustrator Francesco Francavilla. Argento and Francavilla are a perfect match, with the latter’s violent, pulpy style feeling incredibly authentic to the era and source.
Both versions will be available tomorrow (Thursday, 5/8) at 12pm CT at madebymutant.com.
