Italian horror stylist, Dario Argento directs this inventive, suspense thriller about Peter Neal, (Anthony Franciosa), an American mystery novelist who comes to Rome to promote his latest release.Soon after his arrival, a bizarre sequence of shocking homicides occur which strangely resemble the murders in his book. The police are stunned and confused, so Neal decides to take charge of an investigation with the help of his agent (John Saxon) and his staff. "TENEBRAE" showcases Argento’s notorious operatic violence – and includes the bloodiest axe murder in screen history.Argento was inspired to write "TENEBRAE" (which means "darkness" in Latin) when, shortly after John Lennon’s murder, he himself was stalked by a deranged SUSPIRIA fan who threatened to kill him.
