Romero and Argento don't disappoint

Two Evil Eyes teams up horror greats Dario Argento and George Romero. Based on Edgar Allen Poe stories, Argento and Romero update these tales and put their own spin on things.

Romero's story is the lesser of the two. Adrienne Barbeau is fine as a scheming adulterous wife who tries to manipulate her dying husband into leaving her, and her lover, all his fortunes while the poor man is on his deathbed. Through use of hypnosis, the man dies but does not completely leave but is stuck between worlds. Romero's story is too slow to really make an impact. It really drags and the tempo never rises too high, it feels sort of sedated. But it has it's moments with a particularly creepy ending.

Argento's story has Harvey Keitel as a crime scene photographer who goes insane, kills his girlfriend but can't seem to get rid of her black cat. Argento's story is the better one here. It's stylishly filmed, has a good soundtrack, a fantastic performance from Keitel, is fast paced and genuinely suspenseful. Argento seems to like his steak bloody this time around, quite gory at times.

I feel this teaming up of Argento and Romero could have gone even better, but overall is wasn't disappointed with the outcome.
