Dario Argento is back! The horror master 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.
The 20-second teaser doesn't give us much to go on, but even this brief glimpse is suitably gruesome. All we know about the plot is that it will focus on “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.”
Yep, sounds like an Argento movie alright.
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 prostiture, Andrea Zhang as the young boy, and Dario’s daughter Asia Argento in an unnamed supporting role.
Check out the teaser below along with a pretty cool They Live-inspired poster, and let us know what you think.
