GialloGuru – 7/10
“A classic giallo with a twisty plot that keeps you guessing. The moody atmosphere and eerie beach setting are top-notch, and the mannequin scene really sets the tone. It starts strong but loses some steam in the middle. Still, a must-see for fans of the genre.”
ScaryFan88 – 6/10
“I liked the creepy vibe and the suspenseful buildup, but parts felt a bit dated. The acting is decent, and the plot has some interesting twists, but it didn't quite scare me as much as I hoped. Worth a watch if you're into Italian thrillers.”
HorrorNerd2019 – 5/10
“This one was a bit of a letdown for me. The premise is intriguing, but the pacing is uneven and the story gets confusing at times. The atmosphere is solid, but the scare factor is low. It feels more like a mystery than a horror film, and I expected more.”
CultClassicChick – 8/10
“I'm a sucker for these old Italian thrillers, and 'Spasmo' didn't disappoint! The eerie soundtrack and the beautiful, unsettling cinematography really set the mood. The plot is crazy and unpredictable, which I love. Not perfect, but it's a gem for giallo fans.”
