Starring Leigh McCloskey, Irene Miracle, Eleonora Giorgi
A young woman (Irene Miracle) stumbles upon a mysterious diary that reveals the secrets of the “Three Mothers” and unleashes a nightmare world of demonic evil. As the unstoppable horror spreads from Rome to New York, this unholy trinity must be stopped before the world is submerged in the blood of the innocent. Written and directed by Dario Argento, this surreal shocker is the visually stunning second chapter of his Three Mothers Trilogy that began with the classic SUSPIRIA and concluded nearly thirty years later with THE MOTHER OF TEARS.
