User Reviews
“Martino really knew how to craft atmosphere. The mix of chic Vienna settings and brutal violence was unnerving, and the twist caught me off guard. Definitely one of the better giallos I've seen.”
“It's a stylish ride with a great sense of paranoia. The acting is a bit dated but the killer's reveal and the razor scenes are top-notch. Fans of the genre will eat this up.”
“I found the pacing a tad slow and the plot confusing at times. The atmosphere is there, but it didn't scare me as much as I hoped. It's decent for a rainy afternoon, but not a favorite.”
“There's a lot to enjoy here for hardcore giallo fans – the cinematography is gorgeous and the score is haunting. But it's not Martino's best; the story gets convoluted and some performances feel stiff. Still, worth a watch for the genre's completists.”
