Review of Trauma

Trauma (1993)
6/10
Not Argento's Finest, but Ok
17 October 2020
An anorexic teenager sees her parents murdered and thinks the killer could be coming after her next, so it's up to a struggling addict to keep her safe.

Dario Argento's flair for over the top gory set pieces isn't as noticeable here and everything feels more calm and by the numbers, but every now and then, there's a shot or sequence that feels like old fashioned Argento and those moments are worth watching it for. It's also interesting to see a film of his that appears to use all live audio from the set and that takes place in America. It's jarring at first, but you get used to it.
