Paganini Horror (1989)

Curiosidades

Paganini Horror is a 1989 Italian horror film directed by Luigi Cozzi. The film tells the story of a largely female rock band who acquires an unpublished score by composer Niccolò Paganini and decides to record it. When the band films a music video for the song in Paganini's ancient home, it awakens the spirit of the deceased composer and unlocks a portal to Hell.

Production

The development of Paganini Horror was based on the premise that the film Paganini, a pet project of actor Klaus Kinski, was going to be a great success. Cozzi came up with the title for the film and producer Ugo Valenti hired Enzo Sciotti to illustrate a poster for the film, after which a script began to be developed.

Cozzi then found producer Fabrizio De Angelis, who expressed his interest in the film. A few days before filming, De Angelis told Cozzi to scrap the gory scenes in the film, as the budget would not allow them, which led to Cozzi rewriting parts of the script to include more fantastical scenes in their place.

The film was shot in three and a half weeks on location in Venice and at R.P.A. Elios Studios in Rome.
