This film is an extremely entertaining psychological thriller with Carrol Baker excellent as a rich American widow getting away from it all at a secluded Italian villa. Enter smart aleck down on his luck playboy, Lou Castel, who has some golddigging motives behind his slick hipster seduction techniques and has no qualms about how he gets what he wants. He encourages Baker's character's incipient alcoholism and dubious self-esteem, brings in his supposed 'sister' to help drag Baker even further into a maze of sick mind games, drug addiction and group sex, all culminating in a descent into near-madness and self-destructive depravity.
I won't give away anymore, suffice to say that the film delivers on its swinging sixties, Euro sleaze ambience and psychological suspense thriller credentials in spades. Director Umberto Lenzi's work has been, at best, uneven and he's churned out his share of crap. However, he made some quite good giallos and crime pictures in the sixties and seventies and this is one of them (other good films by Lenzi -- SPASMO, SEVEN BLOODSTAINED ORCHIDS, ASSAULT WITH A DEADLY WEAPON, to name only a few).
Unfortunately this film is ofen confused with another okay but not-quite-as-good Lenzi film that was also released briefly here in America under the same PARANOIA title (but is more commonly known, especially on video, as A QUIET PLACE TO KILL).
女巫伪装人类皮囊体验冷暖，第一人称的感受独白有诗意
电影以上层杀手之死与警笛结尾，“我会去找你”是最后的告白。正义未被伸张，冤魂未得到安息，也正有人遭到迫害，压抑、没有希望、没有出路……
What a ridiculous and hopeless time. The vibes of each scenes was also despairing. Therefore the scenes when they together were seem to be the only hope in here.
我和老女巫有同样的问题 为什么别人付出爱得到爱 永远都是那么简单 而我却一次次躲在黑暗中泪流不止
恐怖又成了噱头，这显然是部文艺片。起初昏昏沉沉，观感逐步上升，对烦人的台词和晃悠悠的镜头也适应了些。艺术表达上小有成效，例如一开始猫的视角就很有意思。主要就是借女巫传说，讲了一个女孩如何重新做人，学会“爱”的故事。之前没看过这类扒皮变身的电影，可给个好评，最后落点还是真爱无敌，俗套又感人。
披着恐怖皮的文艺片，我太浮躁了，没看进去，MTC79
剧本特别扎实，跌宕起伏，到结尾都让人心绷着。演员们的演技也特别在线，又是高颜值！！！喜欢！！！男主太有魅力了😭
“做人不能什么都怕，尤其是自由！” 受到压抑和迫害的同性恋
挺好的片子啊，有同性题材的罪案片，如果只想看谈情说爱那可以绕道了，故事悬疑感还不错。
她和真爱结合的时候 房间里的暖色调 想到教父里的那段
一言以蔽之就是，媳妇熬成婆，成婆不折磨的故事……
环球，口碑爆棚，劳米现在可以算得上是劳模了，一年最少两部片
就有点像恶魔版的《一条狗的使命》？画面清丽鲜活富有生命力，像风景大片。片子里一半在掏肠子喝生血一半在为爱鼓掌，我一个德州电锯毫无感觉的人居然开始生理不适，手里的薯条顿时不香了
都说恐同即深柜，太悲哀了。
不会出错的深刻论题 但拍的好没意思啊 为什么旁白不用镜头表现出来呢
寓言+“自然主义”+男导演拍“女性”题材+ elevated horror 一旦发现这四个元素撞到一起最好打起十二分避雷警惕，因为你将面对的很有可能是一个毫无灵魂的超低配版艾格斯。拿这种空洞苍白且满是浪漫幻想的说教去跟马利克相提并论，简直是跟马利克有仇……
以独白的方式来造就疏离，以他者的身份审视女人与男人，以融合的方式来证明爱情的可能性；
从一无所知的女孩变成一无所知的女巫，变成女人，承受男人的暴力和对世界的不解 。变成男人，保护那个不会劈柴的男孩，为死去的女孩第一次流泪。最后重新变成女孩，重新体会一遍身而为女人的痛苦和幸福，还是重新爱上那个人群里羞涩，脆弱的男孩。
她和真爱结合的时候 房间里的暖色调 想到教父里的那段
看海报还以为是老叔叔的故事，其实很嫩啊四星半吧
