01/31/2019 Completely boring and overlong one note necrophilia movie. Has a quick opening but just meanders for 50 or so minutes doing absolutely nothing. Not worth the watch or the notoriety it has received. See more 03/03/2017 An atmospheric masterpiece, full of creepy feelings that keeps you interested till the end..! See more 10/02/2015 There actually isn't a great deal of the Macabre in this film. For the most part is sort of plods along in a barely coherent manner. The claims of authenticity fail to ring true, in the end it feels like Bava may have been out of his depth a bit with this one. See more 09/22/2015 A great debut from Lamberto Bava. Well shot and acted. Full of suspense with a fantastic ending. Not for the squeamish. See more 08/11/2014 I got this movie in a Blue Underground Triple feature along with Shock and A Blade in the Dark. While I found the story interesting, I predicted the climax far to early on in the film and felt that the storyline with her sociopath daughter really was pointless to the plot. I actually did like the blind guy but I felt that panning over a women obviously way older than him and not very nice left me sore. I think the film showed a what a promising film maker could do. See more 01/18/2013 Not a lot really happens until the last third. See more Read all reviews
