Tenebrae

Released 1982
Distributor Sigma Cinematografica Roma

Barely released in the US in a heavily cut and censored version improbably titled The Unsane, Dario Argento’s violent thriller is celebrated for its pioneering use of the Louma crane. American writer Anthony Franciosa, in Italy to promote his latest horror novel, finds that a serial killer is offing victims in gruesome tableaus based on his writings.  This was one of the first “video nasties” that were successfully prosecuted and banned from sale in UK video stores in 1984.
