Trauma (1993)
I hate to sound cliche, but this really does rank among Argentos worst (still making it better than average). Asia Argento stars as a deranged daughter fleeing from a black gloved killer that stalks her after killing her parents. The killer has a penchant for decapitation, leading to some bloody effects by master Tom Savini, but the plot feels extremely watered down in comparison to Argentos earlier works. What the film offers in style it more than makes up for in bad acting and bland scripting, so the film is really a mixed bag. With nothing truly unique or interesting about it, it ranks low for Argento, but it is not a complete disaster.

I thought it was all around kinda weak, but there were at least enough severed heads rolling around in this thing to keep me watchin' 'til the end. That AND Brad Dourif. he is one of my personal faves.
ReplyDeleteI try to like it more with each viewing, but its hard not to get distracted. Dourif rules though, going to meet him in two weeks at Fango LA, will post pics hopefully if they let us..
