"Thriller"? "Psychological"? "So many layers"? "Great performances"? "Amazing film"? I blink in amazement. Although I should make that list in reverse order - but actually I am a bit mad myself! and you know why? For watching this "unbelievable mess of a movie", as one of the less than few sane reviewers warns.
Even if taken as camp the film is a disaster: ludicrous, lewd, of a badness not to be believed references to Hitchcock, Polanski, and what you will, but without any talent at all! Or purpose. At all!
Bad, hyperbolic angles, a scenario probably written in two days, expression that passes, on the same face (but one cannot be terribly sure, it may be another's), from the thriller cookbook to the camp grin in less than a second, and then more bad angles.
Even if the director-screenwriter wanted to play in Argento's territory, sorry but Argento has a touch that can't be assimilated, even if one is a fan, or not.
I think the majority of the reviewers were practically joking, paying homage to what they saw, which is I would say excitingly laudable, to imitate what you love so much, that you begin acting like it.
