A tightly constructed character study that will initiate unfamiliar viewers with a thorough and thought-provoking primer, while simultaneously giving lifelong fans a better understanding of their sometimes-fetishistic fondness for the filmmaker.

鈥淒ario Argento Panico鈥� surpasses expectations as a retrospective docu-appraisal given Scafidi鈥檚 uncommon investment in his subjects.

New York Times

Part career profile and part psychological exploration, 鈥淧anico鈥� smoothly accomplishes the first but teases gold with the second.

The Film Stage

Scafidi鈥檚 portrait of Argento the man is, for the most part, sympathetic and in many ways rather ordinary, though there are occasional flashes of insight.

If there is an acknowledgement of a dimming of the light here, this is a fine contextualisation of how brightly he burned within the genre

You get great commentary from his daughter, Asia, and even better from some filmmakers -- particularly Guillermo Del Toro, who is so insightful that he could be one of the best film critics in the world.
