Probably my favorite movie to rewatch at the moment
Feels like an extended Twilight Zone episode! Absolutely hauntingly dreamy
Haunting & atmospheric noir with a saucy lead. Proof that weird true crime babes have always been around. Absolute place in my heart ❤️
Very dreamlike. More about the vibe and the imagery than the plot. Beautiful, eerie cinematography. Would recommend you experience it.
The movie just feels like anxiety and paranoia and genuinely freaked me out several times. Doesn't hold up perfectly but it's a good watch
Fantastic eerie film; even with its poor dubbing and rough edges, it merges death and reality so vividly.
interesting, wasn’t extra special but definitely watch it if you like horror/classics wasn’t scary in my opinion but was a good watch
It was diferent but i was expecting more
Classic with score thats last a little longer
A strange and beautiful film. Genuinely chilling in places
