The film, released in 1980, is the second chapter in Argento’s Three Mothers trilogy, following Suspiria. Where Suspiria is inseparable from Goblin’s legendary score, Inferno takes a different musical path: its soundtrack was composed and performed by Keith Emerson, the keyboard giant of Emerson, Lake & Palmer. The result is less rock-band ritual and more feverish symphonic nightmare — piano, organ, orchestral drama, progressive-rock tension, and that unmistakable Emerson sense of danger.
