For fans of Profondo Rosso (Deep red)

It is a bit hard to suspend your disbelief, or get into the plot, with below average acting and unbelievable details (fake cobwebs in a cinema that's been closed for years, raccord mistakes, apparent very low budget...) but fans of Deep red might enjoy this as it pays a clear homage to Argento's film through the soundtrack and many images and scenes (the lecture in the theatre, the dolls, the investigator, even the duration of both films is almost the same). Sometimes "Fabula" shows some powerful images but in all it makes you wanna watch Deep red again.

Unique in a creepy kitsch way

The start of the movie isn't especially strong or interesting: you have to be patient to be rewarded with some really weird, old school creepy Italian kitsch.

The movie is anything but perfect, the audio is atrocious and the pacing is kinda slow, but there's an unique and original vibe.

Strangely enough, I recommend it.
