Phenomena

A quick shout-out to Phenomena, the 1985 Dario Argento murder mystery/horror film about a girl at a boarding school who controls insects and helps solve a string of crimes.

My personal favorite Argento film this movie is as weird as it is beautiful. You will never forget it.

 Chris Seaver is a film actor, writer, director, etc. For many years he helmed Low Budget Pictures, a company that specialized mainly in indie horror comedies.
