Dario Argento Panico

Giallo Maestro Dario Argento will be featured in Dario Argento Panico, a documentary retrospective acquired by Shudder. A new trailer debuted today that teases the notable talking heads featured in the personal portrait of the acclaimed fimmaker.

The documentary will arrive on Shudder on February 2, 2024, after making its world premiere at the 2023 Venice Film Festival.

Watch the trailer and get a peek at the new poster, a fun nod to the yellow “giallo” translation, below.

The official Dario Argento Panico synopsis: “In the secluded ambiance of hotel rooms, Dario Argento crafted his greatest cinematic creations, seeking solace from the outside world to delve into his nightmares. Now, he finds himself in a hotel room to return to the very setting that ignited his creative fervor to conclude his latest script and participate in an intimate interview, all while being followed by a film crew documenting his life for a movie about his illustrious career.”

Simone Scadfi directs the documentary feature. Scadfi also helmed the 2019 Lucio Fulci biopic Fulci for Fake.

Look for exclusive interviews with Dario Argento himself, Asia Argento, Guillermo del Toro, Franco Ferrini, Gaspar Noé, Nicolas Winding Refn, and more.

Known as the Master of Thrill and a Master of Horror, Argento made his directorial debut in 1970 and has since developed a reputation for graphic shocks and intense visual atmospheres. Argento has left an indelible mark on the genre, so it’s about time a documentary spotlighted his enduring career.

Ahead of its Shudder debut, the IFC Center in New York will present a theatrical retrospective, “Panic Attacks: The Films of Dario Argento,” of Argento’s films from January 31 – February 8. The program will feature the U.S. premiere of Dario Argento Panico, along with screenings of SuspiriaInfernoDeep RedTenebrae, and more.

Giada Mazzoleni produced alongside executive producer Manlio Gomarasca.
