Oops, I witnessed a murder is the latest theme. "Deep Red" (1975) is the second film we've reviewed by Italian horror director Dario Argento, and it is much like the first, "Suspiria". Lots of head scratching moments, yet we both liked it.\xa0 Argento is\xa0 inventive in ways to kill people. DePalma's "Blow Out" (1981) was a new genre of film for\xa0 Travolta and he pulled it off. He plays a movie sound man who sees a murder and does his own sleuthing . A young\xa0 Lithgow steals the movie in a psychotic supporting role. This is the kind of film you want to be great, but alas it's just good.\xa0
Next, killing sprees is our theme with "The Boys Next Door" (1985) and "Elephant" (2003).
