Phenomena (1985)
Directed by Dario
Argento this film also known as “Creepers” stars Jennifer
Connelly, Donald Pleasence and Daria Nicolodi. The daughter of a
famous actor is sent to a boarding school in Switzerland where her
strange powers start to manifest themselves and a serial killer is on
the loose.
Mostly the basic plot
of this film is your standard slasher fare but there are some unusual
combinations of details. Despite some initial promise none of these
strange details add up to anything especially interesting as they do
not really tap into a common phobia. The best part of the film is the
sound track which is very impressive and the film was also one of the
first to use steadicam.
3/5
