Horror Scenes That I Love: Irene Miracle Takes A Swim in Dario Argento’s Inferno


Inferno (1980, dir by Dario Argento)

For today’s scene that I love, here is a classic scene from 1980’s Inferno, Dario Argento’s follow-up to Suspiria. In this scene, Irene Miracle takes a fateful swim. I’ve seen this film several times and this sequence still creeps me out! Not only does it remind me of my own very strong fear of drowning but I also wish someone had been there to say, “Don’t do that, you’re going to ruin that pretty dress!”

This scene is Argento at his most dream-like and frightening.
