 | | So, Tenebrae is a thriller about a writer of thrillers who, whilst on a promotional tour in Italy for his new book (...also called Tenebrae), finds himself the focus of a deranged serial killer, who is offing his victims according to the grisly murders found in the very same author's work. |
 | | What makes Tenebrae a little more interesting however, is that aforementioned streak of self-reflection and a major twist on perspective that easily rivals the great revelation towards the end of Deep Red, with Argento once again playing with the notions of subjective memory, perspective, and the idea of sight and sightlessness. |
 | | The style or Tenebrae is less over-the-top than some of his other films, particularly Suspiria and Deep Red, with the director here going for something that's rooted in a more obvious reality, which I suppose gives a more believable streak to the work of a director so rooted in visual and thematic abstraction. |
