Why this pick
Argento’s dream-logic predecessor shares Inferno’s saturated colour, occult architecture, elaborate murder set-pieces, and sense that an ancient evil is embedded in a place.
Why this pick
For Inferno’s formal visual bravura and mounting unease, this offers razor-clean modernist spaces, bravura camera movement, stylised violence, and a tightly coiled mystery.
Why this pick
A Gothic, architecture-centred nightmare in which a building itself seems to conceal vast occult forces; it closely matches Inferno’s ornate, feverish supernatural atmosphere.
Why this pick
Its crumbling hotel, esoteric lore, vivid colour and escalating oneiric horror make it an especially strong companion to Inferno’s irrational, hallucinatory descent.
Why this pick
Mario Bava turns a baroque mansion into a floating dream of death, using painterly colour, labyrinthine space and disorienting supernatural imagery akin to Inferno’s mood.

01 / THE STORY
Rose Elliot (Irene Miracle), a poet living alone in New York City, finds an ancient book titled ''The Three Mothers''. The book, written by an alchemist named Varelli, tells of three evil sisters who rule the world with sorrow, tears, and darkness, and dwell inside separate homes that had been built for them by the alchemist. Mater Suspiriorum, the Mother of Sighs, lives in Freiburg. Mater Lachrymarum, the Mother of Tears, lives in Rome, and Mater Tenebrarum, the Mother of Darkness, lives in New York.
