Deep Red (Profondo Rosso) Dario Argento filming location at Villa Scott in Turin

Take a look at the exterior of the House of the Screaming Child from Dario Argento's 1975 giallo masterpiece Deep Red / Profondo Rosso - Villa Scott - in Turin, October 2020. This is home of the killer as visited by Marcus Daly (David Hemmings). The beautiful 1902 villa by Pietro Fenogio with Art Nouveau flourishes is a private property, so you can’t go in and scratch away the plaster or try to knock holes in the wall to locate a secret room, but there’s lots to see and photograph from the road outside, and the gates are mercifully not enclosed, meaning you can peer through. Many of the trees and bushes are a lot more overgrown now than in the movie, possibly to keep tourists away, so a visit in winter when trees are more bare might reveal more. And while visiting, don’t miss the hairpin bend at the end of the road that Marcus drives up.
