Episode 140 - Tenebae

Tenebrae.jpg

Dario is back with a return to the Giallo genre! Unfortunately, despite the fans this one has, the guys didn’t love this one. With the exception of a few stand out scenes, “Tenebrae” fell short of coming together in a fully complete, cohesive film for Tim and Ryan. The clear Argento-ness that we know and appreciate was there, but at the end of the day the twist didn’t quite work out as well as it could have. Thus, “Tenebrae” earned a double “stream,” resulting in a fun conversation about how to approach this film differently.
