Phenomena (1985)
Assemble your spear and follow the fly in the box because we're discussing Dario Argento's 1985 giallo fairytale, Phenomena.Starring Jennifer Connelly, Donald Pleasence and Argento's frequent collaborator, Daria Nicolodi, this movie is wild (seriously: take a shot every time we say the word). From questionable disability representation to a Friday the 13th-inspired climax, from chimps to bugs, Phenomena kinda has it all.Plus: Trace tackles the multiple cuts, Joe's fantasy double bill, a "sleepy" Connelly, maggot baptisms, and debate about who committed the murders and why.Questions?
