Dario Argento's Masterpiece - In It's Full-Length Director's Cut!
An English jazz pianist living in Rome witnesses the brutal hatchet murder of a renowned psychic and is quickly drawn into the savage crime. With the help of a tenacious female reporter, the pair track a twisted trail of deranged clues and relentless violence towards a shocking climax that has ripped screams from the throats of audiences for more than 25 years!
Deep Red stars David Hennings (Blow-Up) and Daria Nicoldi (Phenomena, Tenebre), and is widely considered by both fans and critics alike to be Dario Argento's true masterpiece. Now, with the cooperation of the maestro himself, this classic shocker is presented in its full-length Director's Cut - remixed in Dolby Digital 5.1, uncut and uncensored for the first time ever!

A Grand thriller! - 3.75 out of 5 (7/17/2000)
"Deep Red" has long been considered to be the best work of Director Dario Argento. This is quite a claim for the man who also helmed one of the best murder thrillers of all time, namely "Suspiria" (Which is also coming out later in the year from Anchor Bay in a deluxe edition!)
I do apologize for that little commercial there, but it was a fact that needed mentioning, that fact does not in any way detract from the honor given to "Deep Red" The film had been available in the states in at leas

from Fringe Video Fanzine Issue #001 - 3 out of 5 (5/13/2002)

Terrific giallo film - 3.75 out of 5 (5/16/2001)
This is the most complete version of the film around. As a result, it's a little odd, because some parts are dubbed, and other parts (those that were cut from the original English-language release) are subtitled. Still a terrific crime drama, with sufficient gore for horror-hounds and beautiful cinematography for more conventional film buffs.

Despite the obvious Poe theft, one of Argento's best. - 3.25 out of 5 (7/16/2000)
Though Dario follows a strict formula in his plot direction and building of suspense, Profondo Rosso never gets tiresome like Suspira and Inferno. Along with Tenebre and Opera, this remains one of his brightest shining moments.
