Synopsis by Robert Firsching

Italian filmmaker Luigi Cozzi (Starcrash) was a long-time collaborator of acclaimed director Dario Argento, and this amusing horror film was his homage to his mentor. It's about a director who plans to complete Argento's "Three Mothers" trilogy, which began with Suspiria (1977) and Inferno (1980). Unfortunately for the cast and crew, the third witch is real and begins killing people off. The film is full of thunder and lightning, gore effects, and a familiar cast including Brett Halsey, Florence Guerin, Caroline Munro, and fellow Argento protégé Michele Soavi (Cemetery Man).
