INFERNO (1980)
Stupidest ending of any Dario Argento film so far has to be the one in this film. There's a person in a rubber Halloween skeleton outfit yelling about being death while an "inferno" engulfs them. Maybe this looked like a cool ending on paper but the way it's filmed it just comes off as the most embarrassingly ridiculous spectacle you will see in a somewhat serious film. There's other nonsensical things that happen including a crazy(or is he possessed?) hot dog salesman who kills a guy for drowning cats and other things that may have seemed cool in the script but come off really bizarre on film. The music, even though not done by Goblin, is cool in its own way. This is a sequel to SUSPIRIA but besides the underwater sequence and some strange colored scenes here and there it doesn't come close to being the amazing trip through witchy wonderland that SUSPIRIA is.
