Boyd van Hoeij european-films.net A follow up to Le mystre de la chambre jaune , this film offers much of the same pleasures and problems, though it certainly is a lot funnier than its predecessor. Oct 11, 2005 Full Review Read all reviews

rick m Too weird for me. The end pushed it to terrible. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member I have absolutely no idea how this movie has gotten so many good ratings. It is a terrible movie. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 11/19/20 Full Review Audience Member Wild, surprising, suspense Italian horror that is well worth seeking out. Appears to be a giallo, at first, but paranoia and unusual instances mount, giving the film more of a "Rosemary's Baby" sort of feel. Eventually, things get even more bizarre. What is amazing that all of the weirdness and seeming disconnected events come together to make sense in the end, even if that ending will leave you with your mouth agape (in a good way). Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review delysid d One of my favorite Giallos Rated 4 out of 5 stars 04/28/18 Full Review camille l Clairement plus drôle et plus délirant que le premier opus, Le Parfum de la Dame en Noir souffre tout de même de quelques maux particulièrement agaçants. Le film ne suit aucun réel développement et se perd souvent dans des phases mystiques inintéressantes au possible. Le côté désuet de l'affaire lui sauverait souvent la mise si seulement le spectateur avait la moindre idée de ce qu'il se déroule à l'écran. Il n'empêche que Jean-Noël Brouté, Bruno Podalydès et Zabou Breitman sont excellents et méritent à eux seuls qu'on s'attarde un peu sur cette oeuvre oubliable, mais soignée et sporadiquement divertissante. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Équilibre parfait entre mélancolie et humour, cette suite Podalydèsienne du Mystère de la chambre jaune est un bel objet qu'on contemple affamé. Bref : c'est drôle et c'est beau. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Read all reviews
