Superia director Dario Argento hasn't released a film since 2012's Dracula 3D (some would say he hasn't released a good film since long before then), but he's set to return to his Giallo roots for a Rome-set slasher flick called Dark Glasses, and the full trailer is now online.
All the classic Argento staples are here, including dog attacks, eye stabbings, shadowy assailants, and buckets of blood. The story follows “a prostitute blinded by a serial killer in a botched attack who takes in a young Chinese boy, whose life has also been abruptly altered forever by the maniac’s actions. He will become her ally in a terrifying struggle to see off the serial killer forever.”
It's also been announced that streaming service Shudder has picked up the movie, which is set to premiere this # Fall in North America, the UK & Ireland, and Australia & New Zealand.
Dark Glasses will have its World Premiere at the 72nd Berlin International Film Festival, which will run from February 10-20. The mysterious film stars lenia Pastorelli as the prostitute, Andrea Zhang as the young boy, and Dario’s daughter Asia Argento in an unnamed supporting role.
