A brand new documentary set to premiere at the Venice Film Festival, Dario Argento Panico turns the spotlight on Italian master of horror Dario Argento, focusing on him as he finishes writing the script for his last feature.

Simone Scafidi’s documentary is an immersive deep dive into the creative process and life of the genre filmmaking titan. Per the official synopsis: “Within hotel rooms, sheltered from the outside world, Dario Argento created his most acclaimed films. Today, in a hotel room in Rome’s countryside, he is writing his last. This time, however, he is not alone. Today, in agreement with his agent, he decides to return to a hotel to conclude his new script and to be interviewed, filmed, followed by a crew that is shooting a film about him. Inside this structure, Argento does not initially feel at ease, struggling to find tranquillity both to finish the writing of his film, and to confide in who is interviewing him. But the demon of cinema, who never abandoned him, followed him up there and will push him, once again, to give himself totally.”

The documentary also features exclusive interviews from other acclaimed directors like Gaspar Noé, Guillermo del Toro and Nicolas Winding Refn about Argento’s impact on the horror genre and generations of other directors.
