Dario Argento
Dario Argento ist ein italienischer Filmregisseur, Drehbuchautor und Produzent.
Argento ist der Sohn des Produzenten Salvatore Argento und des brasilianischen Models Elda Luxardi.
Argento schrieb zunächst Filmkritiken für Tageszeitungen. Sein erstes Drehbuch schrieb er gemeinsam mit Bernardo Bertolucci für Sergio Leones klassischen Italo-Western Spiel mir das Lied vom Tod. Seine ersten Regierbeiten im Bereich des Giallo waren u.a. Das Geheimnis der schwarzen Handschuhe (1970), Die neunschwänzige Katze (1971), Vier Fliegen auf grauem Samt (1971) und vor allem Rosso – Farbe des Todes (Profondo Rosso, 1975).
Eine seiner bekannteren Arbeiten ist der Horrorfilm Suspiria (1977), der als erster Teil einer Trilogie über drei Hexenhäuser konzipiert ist, die an zentralen Punkten der Erde die Weltgeschicke lenken. Der zweite Teil der Reihe, Inferno, erschien 1980. Der letzte Teil der Trilogie erschien 2007 unter dem Titel La terza madre.
Des Weiteren erlangte Argento Bekanntheit durch seine Mitwirkung an dem Horrorfilm Dawn Of The Dead des amerikanischen Regisseurs George A. Romero aus dem Jahre 1978, der in Deutschland unter dem Titel Zombie erschien. Argento war dabei Produzent und Script Consultant. Daneben kümmerte er sich noch um den European Cut des Films, sowie zusammen mit der Band Goblin auch um den Soundtrack für diese in Europa erschienene Version des Films, die von Romeros amerikanischem Cut abweicht, indem sie kürzer und actionlastiger ist als das Original.
Seiner Beziehung mit der Schauspielerin und Drehbuchautorin Daria Nicolodi entstammt seine Tochter Asia Argento, ebenfalls Schauspielerin und Regisseurin.
