Movie Reviews of Mother of Tears

Movie Review: OEDIPUS COMPLEX ? YOU BET YA ......
Summary: 4 Stars

WHAT CAN YOU SAY ABOUT DARIO ARGENTOS' WORK TO SOMEONE WHOSE NEVER SEEN IT? ARGENTO IS ONE OF THE FEW MOTION PICTURE DIRECTORS THAT CREATES HIS OWN NIGHTMARE WORLD.A WORLD OF SMOKE AND SHADOW TINTED IN THE CRIMSON RED OF BLOOD . A TRUE ARTIST THAT HAS MADE SEVERAL BENCHMARK HORROR AND GIALLO FILMS . NO FILM BETTER EXPRESSES THE VISION OF THE ARTIST THAN "SUSPIRA" . THAT FILM INTRODUCED HORROR FANS TO THE 3 MOTHERS , THE MOTHER OF SIGHS , THE MOTHER OF DARKNESS AND NOW THE FINAL OF THE TRILOGY "THE MOTHER OF TEARS" . THESE THREE WITCHES HAVE LONG PLOTTED MANKINDS DEMISE . THE FIRST TWO WITCHES WERE DISPATCHED IN THE FILMS " SUSPIRA " AND "INFERNO". THIS THE THIRD AND FINAL OF THE TRILOGY .THIS MOTHERS INFLUENCE IS MORE FAR REACHING AS THE MOTHER OF TEARS IS BY FAR THE MOST DANGEROUS OF THE 3 SISTERS . A WORLDWIDE EPIDEMIC OF EVIL IS SET OFF WHEN THE RESTING PLACE OF THE MOTHER OF TEARS IS DISTURBED AND AWAKENS HER . ASIA ARGENTO IS THE DAUGHTER OF A " GOOD WITCH" AND THE LAST PERSON ABLE TO UPSET THE CHAIN OF EVENTS LEADING TO A NEW DARK AGE . WHILE NOT AS BEAUTIFUL AS SUSPIRA ( THE MOST EMPIRICALLY BEAUTIFUL HORROR FILM EVER MADE ) THE FILM SUMS UP THINGS NICELY . RECOMMENDED .

Movie Review: The Third of the Witch Series
Summary: 4 Stars

If you like Dario Argento Films this is one to add to your collection. I picked up this movie to not only add another Dario Argento Film to my movie collection, but also complete the Witches Trilogy. The best way of describing this movie would be to say that it is similar to the Church(Demons 3)in many ways. In terms of the trilogy it is between Suspiria and Inferno. The gore level is about the same as Suspiria, while the acting is only as good as Inferno. It is also the first time I have seen Asia Argento overacting.

It is also worth noting that it appears that Dario Argento had a large budget that he spent on Gore and effects and not on actors. One of the major positive aspects of the film apart from the gore, is the soundtrack. As usual the soundtrack fits as well with this film as each of his other films(In case you haven't seen his other movies the soundtrack always fits the movie well, whether or not you like the movie).

Overall, I feel that this film is the second best in the series, between The best Suspiria and the second movie Inferno.

Movie Review: Argento is a Genius
Summary: 4 Stars

I am one of those people who watch almost no mainstream movies; I'm simply not interested in them. They tend to be boring and predictable even when they're done well. Argento works in the horror genre, but there is genius in his films, far more artistry than in most attempts at "serious" cinema. In any event, when I first saw Madre de Terza a few months ago, while I enjoyed it, I didn't think it was one of Argento's best. Perhaps expectations were too high. But I bought it a few days ago and after watching it a second time, I have to say it is very good. While not a creatively ambitious endeavor by Argento standards, it's an extremely entertaining and well-done horror film. The casting, particularly of Asia and Moran Atias, is perfect. The story isn't particularly groundbreaking but the film is uncannily engaging from beginning to end. It's hard to say why. I suppose it is just the elegance of the whole world that Argento creates, here and in his other films. I'm looking forward to his newest, "Giallo," which is supposed to be coming out soon.

Movie Review: The monkey is soooo annoying!
Summary: 4 Stars

Hello! I liked this movie, but thought Suspiria and Inferno are way SUperior! This movie is INFERior! The gore and violence is done in a creative and stylish way, so it is better than a cheesy Friday the 13 gore-scene. I actually LOVED the soundtrack! The creepy chanting of "Motheeerrr" added some definite tense goose bumps to the experience! What I didn't like about this film is the final confrontation. Wow....what a rip-off. Even the anti-climatic end to Stephen King's The Stand is better than this! The Third Mother can be destroyed that easily?! Maybe Sara could have just gave her a mean look, and the hag might have dropped dead from fear of retaliation! Other than the awful final "battle", the movie is good. The monkey is so annoying though! I was glad when it was disposed of...in a typical Argento fashion! That scene was actually funny...sorry, but it was. I couldn't stand that thing! Overall, descent movie with awful conclusion, and stylish gore and soundtrack. I do not regret buying it.

Movie Review: One Bad Mama
Summary: 4 Stars

Dario Argento is back very much in form. A nice finish to the third installment of the Mother series--fairly well cast except the Mother Of tears can't make up mind about the actress. Asia Argento gets better as she grows older, she not afraid to look
ugly at times. Gore and blood bounce back with a vengence. No use getting into the plot its been put nicey by the reviewers. Claudio Simonetti(Goblin group but is no more) gives us a more tradional music background rather than the hard rock. So sit back and enjoy pure terror and horror at its best
