Terror at the Opera - Peephole Headshot


In the most incredibly filmed scene from Terror at the Opera, Mira looking through a peephole, is greeted by a bullet gliding gracefully into her face. The shot is fantastic because the camera is slowed down to the extreme as you can see the bullet pass from the gun into the metal tunnel of the spy hole. Its not a special effects trick, it's a slow motion real time shot of a bullet being fired and looks fantastic.

C.O.D. - Headshot

Victim - Mira (Daria Nicolodi)

Assailant - Inspector Alan Santini (Urbano Barberini)

Famous Last Words - "No, not the gun. I want to see your face" --Mira
