Phenomena

Directed by Dario Argento

During her first night at boarding school, Jennifer witnesses a horrible murder while sleepwalking. After digging deeper into the crime, Jennifer meets a professor who uncovers her psychic connection to insects, and encourages her to use her strange gift to catch the killer. Dario Argento’s sci-fi spin on his iconic giallo style has divided fans since its’ release but for us, its squirmy pleasures have only deepened. Beyond the bugs, maggots and monkeys, it’s a creepy-crawly must-see, especially for Connelly’s fearless performance.

A girl with a psychic connection to insects must use her gift to catch a killer.

Cast: Jennifer Connelly, Donald Pleasence, Daria Nicolodi

The movie makes little sense but it is a pretty fun ride. The last act was rather bonkers but the best part of the movie.

Inspired the Clock Tower video game and a bit of the movie Mandy as well. Dario Argento, Jennifer Connelly. Worth a watch.

It's like a child wrote the plot, and I mean that in the best way possible. Utterly, charmingly crazy. No, you won't guess who the killer is unless you have a head injury. Motorhead plays on the soundtrack.

This is so rad, but also so batshit!
