Description

Macbeth and the Three Witches (French: Macbeth et les trois sorcière) depicts a scene from William Shakespeare's 1623 tragedy Macbeth, when Macbeth, accompanied on horseback by Banquo, encounters the Three Witches on the moors.

Act 1, scene 3

Synopsis:

The three witches greet Macbeth as “Thane of Glamis” (as he is), “Thane of Cawdor,” and “king hereafter.” They then promise Banquo that he will father kings, and they disappear. Almost as soon as they are gone, Ross and Angus arrive with news that the king has named Macbeth “Thane of Cawdor.” Macbeth contemplates killing Duncan in order to become “king hereafter” as the witches have called him.

Thunder. Enter the three Witches.

Horror Movie of the day: Opera (1987)

The Tragedie of Macbeth. Also known as “The Scottish Play” among those who practice theater, this Shakespeare’s tragedy is infamous for the curse it allegedly carries onto those who bring up its name beyond rehearsal: they shall meet disaster in their lives, ranging from seeing their careers ruined to dying on stage. As such, Betty is quite understandably nervous of her debut in the world of opera when she’s asked to replace lead Mara Cecova actress after she suffered a car accident while leaving an avant-garde version the play.

Indeed, soon enough her apprehension is proven to be well placed, for people around the play start dying violently. At the hands of someone obsessed with her.

Being the last collaboration between Dario Argento and Daria Nicolodi, this film also marks the end of an era for the Italian director, being the last of his films to garner critical acclaim after a troubled production to such a degree the people involved believed Macbeth is indeed a cursed name. Born from Argento's own experience with the world of opera (as he contemplated directing a play for a while), the end result puts the stylish opulence of this medium against the more abstract world of modern theater, and blends them through the crazy horror styling Argento is known for in a demented portrayal of murderous obsession. It goes from strident metal music to dissonant serenity in a heartbeat, while retaining the less colorful but nevertheless stunning photography of his 80's body work through and through.

If there’s any warts to the film, is that all of this ends up somewhat undercut by having one of the clumsiest, stupidest and most poorly executed twist endings in cinema history; Red Dragon this is not. Fortunately, the journey up to that point is more than worth the ride (and said ending is easy to ignore thanks to the movie's structure).
