Dario Argento describes FOUR FLIES ON GREY VELVET as a deeply personal exploration of his inner turmoil: “I decided to let loose, go crazy, and unleash all my creativity and personal nightmares. Psychoanalysis plays a major role in the film because it’s partly autobiographical – rather Freudian, in fact.”

Both Argento and lead actor Michael Brandon, in exclusive interviews for this edition, reveal how the director found his alter ego in Brandon, channelling his own paranoia to create an unsettling psychological thriller. The result is a shocking, knife-edge whodunit with a stunning twist. Introspection becomes art in Argento’s hands, making FOUR FLIES ON GREY VELVET essential viewing for anyone seeking a glimpse into the director’s psyche. It concludes Argento’s iconic ‘Animal’ trilogy, paving the way for ‘Suspiria’ and his later expressionistic masterpieces that earned him the title ‘Master of Horror.’

Celebrated rock musician Roberto Tobias (Michael Brandon) is thrust into a nightmare. Framed for a brutal stabbing, he soon finds himself ensnared in a web of senseless murders. The only clue to the deranged killer lies in a cryptic image captured on a victim’s retina. Roberto’s desperate search for truth will push him to the brink of madness, culminating in a shocking climax.

With Argento’s signature blend of terror and visual opulence—and Ennio Morricone’s haunting score— FOUR FLIES ON GREY VELVET reaches an unforgettable slow-motion finale in breath-taking cinematic style. This 4K-UHD HDR edition, is encoded from the 4K-restoration of original video and audio materials, finally presenting Maestro Argento’s vision as he wishes it to be experienced – preferably in a completely dark room!
