‘The Spiral’ Review: Paolo Strippoli’s Lurid Faustian Tragedy Shores Up His Reputation as Italy’s New Horror Virtuoso

Comments

1. Luna: i've never heard of this guy before but the italian horror scene has been really pushing boundaries lately - what do people think is driving this resurgence?
2. Dusk Reaper: Never really got the whole Devil Wears Prada vibe from this "Spiral" thing, but I'm more curious how they're setting up the story rather than fashion choices
3. Ember Comet: what's with all the fancy clothes in this movie?
4. Solar Mantis: i'm still trying to wrap my head around the idea that devil worshipping is horror now but paolo strippoli is definitely someone who's worth keeping an eye on
5. Elias: never thought the devil's wardrobe would be my concern in a horror review but here i am 👀
6. Noahsantosxo: Paolo Strippoli is just trying to be Tim Burton, minus the charm
7. Aria: Not really convinced by the hype for Strippoli's films yet, still waiting to see if he can sustain quality beyond one good debut
8. Fractal Vector: love how fashion gets subverted in horror movies, adds this whole new level to the drama
9. Freya: kind of surreal to compare the devil's style inspiration from fashion brands when the real tragedy is our current state of affairs in Italy... not getting my hopes up for Strippoli saving
10. Liam: haven't seen many reviews of Italian horror movies lately but this one seems overhyped to me
11. Amir: paolo strippoli's italian horror wave is something else altogether wasn't expecting to be so drawn in by a creepy aesthetic and some seriously dark plot twists, though guess this is
12. Irisv: love the vibe, but I was expecting more of a descent into madness
13. Wraith Ronin: I'm more interested in the production design than the horror elements here - those costumes look stunning. The woman playing Devil is giving me some serious 80s Italian cinema vibes, love
