Because like Argento, Fulci places atmosphere and visceral impact before coherence. And like Argento, his movies are all the better for it. They feel like bad dreams.

You're ignoring the multitude of westerns, thrillers, and every other genre movie he made before people saw him as "le gore dude".

What are some essential obscure giallo? Everyone's seen Suspiria, Inferno and Blood And Black Lace

fulci was the first modern master, like stoker was the first coherent 20th century novelist. there's before and after, but you can feel the mojo building to one person and then disseminating thru all directors
