Berberian Sound Studio - 2012 - 6/10
Toby Jones plays sound designer hired to work on 70’s Italian horror film.
Think Argento or Fulci (Zombie, Demons . . . )
Interesting for the first half hour, bogs down, grows pretentious, artsy, preposterous.
Reviews have been all over the map. I think I scored kindly.
Film looks good, though dark, and does a fine job showing how effects were made.
Jones plays his character one-note. The narrative wanders then stops.
