Deep Red In Piazza CLN

Deep Red (Italian: Profondo rosso), also known as The Hatchet Murders, is a 1975 Italian giallo film, directed by Dario Argento and co-written by Argento and Bernardino Zapponi. It was released on 7 March 1975. It was produced by Claudio and Salvatore Argento, and the film's score was composed and performed by Goblin. It stars Macha Meril as a medium and David Hemmings as a pianist who investigates a series of murders performed by a mysterious figure wearing black leather gloves. 


The movie is one of the 20 selected films which were made in Turin, displayed and introduced at a selected location where they were filmed. For 'Deep Red', the location selected is in piazza CLN, which is behind the more famous piazza San carlo.



Deep Red was shot mainly on location in Turin, Italy in sixteen weeks. Argento chose Turin because at the time there were more practising Satanists there than in any other European city, excluding Lyon. His original working title for the film was La Tigre dei Denti a Sciabola (The Sabre-Toothed Tiger).
