Daria Nicolodi

Daria Nicolodi, who died in 2020, deserves to be remembered as far more than Dario Argento's muse, though their partnership defined Italian horror. She co-wrote Suspiria, which alone secures her place in the genre, and her on-screen presence in those films carried genuine unease. I think she is too often reduced to her relationship with Argento when she was a real creative force in shaping the giallo and supernatural canon. As the grandmother of that whole aesthetic, her fingerprints are everywhere in modern horror. Revisiting her work, I am struck by how much of the imagination was hers.
