Great Trailer for Psychological Horror Film BERBERIAN SOUND STUDIO
If you like psychological horror films, this looks like a movie you're going to want to see! It's called Berberian Sound Studio, and it stars Tobey Jones as a sound technician tasked with creating the sound for a horror film, and while he's working on it things start to get creepy. The movie is set in the 70s, and it has a style and tone similar to films of that era, like the early work of Roman Polanski and Dario Argento. I love these kinds of films, and this one looks eerily fantastic.
In the 1970s, a British sound technician is brought to Italy to work on the sound effects for a gruesome horror film. His nightmarish task slowly takes over his psyche, driving him to confront his own past. Berberian Sound Studio is many things: an anti-horror film, a stylistic tour de force, and a dream of cinema. As such, it offers a kind of pleasure that is rare in films, while recreating in a highly original way the pleasures of Italian horror cinema.
The movie has already been released in the United Kingdom, but IFC Midnight is bringing the film to the United States next month. I can't wait to see it!
