Yes, even die-hard fans of Dario Argento shouldn’t have expected that, but the giallo horror old master is back with a real bang. With «Dracula 3D» (2012), many saw the time for the Italian director to possibly withdraw from the film world — because how bad was it supposed to get? –, the now 81-year-old once again teaches his critics a lesson: Argento returns to his old strength with “ Dark Glasses — Blinde Angst ” and delivered no less than one of the horror highlights of the year.
After the film had already celebrated its German premiere at this year’s Berlinale and subsequently triggered a storm of enthusiasm at the Fantasy Filmfest , «Dark Glasses» will finally officially start in German cinemas on June 16, 2022. On the occasion of the upcoming theatrical release in a few weeks, we at FILMSTARTS are able to exclusively present you the German trailer for the film today.
The literally dark masterpiece of the genre unfolds its attraction best in the cinema. But if you can hardly wait to watch the horror thriller again and again after going to the cinema, you only need to be patient for a few weeks to be able to experience it at home: «Dark Glasses» will be released on July 29th 2022 for home cinema — completely unabridged and in two strictly limited Mediabook editions including DVD and Blu-ray, which you can even secure now:

He pursues the woman and finally gets her in a car accident — with dramatic consequences: Diana loses her sight and is from now on dependent on the support of Rita ( Asia Argento ) to help people after their blindness with the first steps into their new life in darkness aside. But the killer hasn’t finished his work — and will soon continue his murderous cat-and-mouse game. After all, Diana is still alive, still …
The FILMSTARTS review of «Dark Glasses — Blinde Angst»
With 4.5 out of 5 possible stars in the FILMSTARTS review, «Dark Glasses» is not only one of the first horror highlights of the year, but also one of the best films we’ve seen on the screen so far in 2022. In conclusion, our author Jochen Werner writes, among other things: «It remains to be seen whether it will be a worthy conclusion to the work of a really great horror film director or whether it will be the start of another exciting work phase. But you can look forward to everything that may come.”
