What does "Profondo Rosso" mean?

[IronShadows28]

Ive seen that on a shirt. What does it mean? Its not from a song is it?

 

[lord667]

It's Italian, it means "deep red".

 

[TheFourthHorseman]

And it's from some film, if I'm not mistaken (see we've had a few of these threads too). Not from any song.

 

[Agalloch]

It's from the film Profondo Rosso directed by Dario Argento. The Film is called Deep Red in america. A 70's progressive rock group that Mikael likes called Goblin did the score for the film.
