Phenomena (1985)


xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx


Phenomena is a 1985 Italian horror film directed
by Dario Argento.

For its U.S. release, Phenomena was retitled
Creepers by New Line Cinema and heavily edited to
remove nearly thirty minutes of footage and went
to U.S. theaters and drive-ins in August of 1985.
The murder sequences were shortened by several
seconds to remove gore. A sequence where the
second victim is spotted and chased by the killer
was removed. And two lengthy scenes (which make
up the bulk of the missing footage) involving
Jennifer Connelly's character telling her roommate
the story about how her mother abandoned the
family on Christmas Day (as Argento's own mother
had done) and her character receiving a brain scan
after the second murder were removed for the
purposes of speeding up the flow of the film.

The film's soundtrack features original music by
Goblin and Simon Boswell, providing some of his
earliest film scoring work. "Flash Of The Blade"
by British heavy metal band Iron Maiden was used
multiple times throughout the movie, as well
"Locomotive" by Motörhead. Bill Wyman and Andi
Sexgang are also featured. The solo soprano voice
in the theme song "Phenomena" as well as in
"Jennifer's Friends" and "The Wind" is Pina Magri.

STORY:

Jennifer Corvino, the daughter of a famous actor,
has had trouble with sleepwalking for some time.
Her doctor said that it can develop a split
personality. She discovers her alternate
personality when she stays at a boarding school
that was once the home of Richard Wagner. But
someone has been killing the students, and it
relates only indirectly to the criminal sanitorium
nearby. So it's up to "the two greatest detectives
the world has ever known, or should I say, unknown"
