1. The Bird with the Crystal Plumage vs Cat o' Nine Tails

2. Four Flies on Grey Velvet vs Deep Red

3. Suspiria vs Inferno (Very tricky one, Suspiria is better, but I think my personal preference leans towards Inferno for its atmosphere so I'll vote for it to keep it in the game a bit)

4. Tenebrae vs Phenomena

5. Opera vs Trauma

6. The Stendhal Syndrome vs Phantom of the Opera

7. Sleepless vs The Card Player

It's no classic, but miles better than most anything Argento has done since, say, Trauma. But as you guys already know: it's luck of the draw.

Anyways, here are the results:

Semi Final:

1. Deep Red (0) vs Suspiria (4)

2. Opera (2) vs The Card Player (1)
