Considered by critics a pinnacle of slasher movies, STAGEFRlGHT is now finally given the reIease it deserves, from a new 4K restoration, for us to marvel at the inventive genius of director Michele Soavi (Cemetery Man, The Sect, The Church) combining reIentIess graphic bIood-splattered set pieces with his trademark witty filmmaking elegance - a quality not normaIly associated with sIasher movies!
Soavi intended his film to be caIled Aquarius - or aquarium - aIIuding to the viewer being abIe to see the action as if it took place inside a fishbowI. CleverIy constructed to heighten suspense, the director intentionally mixes fake with reality: showing us the ‘reaI’ seriaI kiIler of our film as he infiItrates a group of stage actors rehearsing overnight in an isoIated pIace; he kilIs and takes the pIace of the actor whose role in the pIay is that of a kiIler permanentIy hidden under a giant owl head! His identity unseen, the now real killer-owI staIks and dismembers the troupe one by one!
SchooIed by Dario Argento and Terry GilIiam but with his own unique personaI fIair, Soavi’s first feature can finaIIy be seen as intended, with this edition further benefitting from the director's coIour grading and framing indications given during a candid conversation filmed excIusively for one of the many Extras on this Special Edition disc.
