REALLY like Opera; totally, totally underrated shit. I even love that completely berserk ending with cops diving out of trees in the mountains and the girl collapsing to the ground to deliver a soliloquy about dirt, or at least that's how I remember it. Definitely Argento's best use of metal.
Back in the day a Suncoast clerk took me aside and personally recommended Phenomenon on vhs. "I think you'll particularly like this one." I did kinda dig it, although it's pretty bad. I later saw that guy on the dvd extras to Cannibal Holocaust.
