This film has a very thick atmosphere at times, the jump-scares are very effective – one of them almost left me breathless. The performances are not perfect, but they do the job – Italian is so nice to listen to, especially when accompanied by great music… Argento is not afraid to show stuff that would hardly be well received if it came from an American director (or would hardly be understood), but that European audiences can take without problem. The story itself is passable, but the ending felt a bit rushed, which is a shame because the minutes that preceded it were very intense (both in atmosphere and gore) and I think it could have been a bit longer… It’s not for everyone, but rather for connoisseurs of horror from the 70s and 80s.

I didn't really believe that Dario Argento could successfully finish his Mother trilogy after the year 2000 because his films in the new millennium simply aren't as great as the ones in the past. However, the script in this case is good, the casting of the main heroine is great, and moreover, the film manages to create truly terrifying images that can crawl under your skin with their intimacy. In the end, you will only be waiting to see how the whole thing manages to escalate.
