Dario Argento’s Opera (1987) 3-Disc Blu-ray Set
Scorpion Releasing’s long-awaited 3-Disc limited edition Blu-ray release of Dario Argento’s Opera (1987) is now available at Ronin Flix. The late-period giallo is a favorite of many Italian horror fans, and this set is likely to be the definitive release for the title. If you are interested in picking it up, I wouldn’t procrastinate, as I assume that it will sell out.
Here’s the description from the Ronin Flix website:
Opera (3 Disc Set)

When young opera singer Betty takes over the leading role in an avant-garde presentation of Verdi’s Macbeth, she triggers the madness of a crazed fan who repeatedly forces her to watch the brutal murders of her friends. Will her recurring childhood nightmare hold the key to the identity of this psychopath or does an even more horrific evil lay waiting in the wings?
