I had thought that I had seen this Dario Argento movie before but I guess not since it all seemed new to me. Not bad for a bloody 2000's giallo by Argento. Definitely better than his previous film that crappy PHANTOM OF THE OPERA interpretation and more reminiscent of his earlier best stuff. You get the expected gore including a gruesome death by a musical instrument, fingers chopped off, a head rolls and lots of stabbings occur. A hunchbacked dwarf is our main suspected killer, nursery rhymes become a major plot point and somehow Max Von Sydow agreed to be in this! While there seem to be a few plotholes(who exactly called the police at the end?) it's still an entertaining one if you're seen all of Dario's classics already.
Super generic trailer because it's the 2000s and everyone has lost all their creativity!:
Released in Italy as NONHOSONNO which sounds very Japanese to me but I'm no linguist!:
