A quick glimpse at the cast for this film would make any horror fan giddy with glee. The actual movie doesn't live up to those high expectations, but it's far from being all bad. Desi Arnaz Jr. (!) plays an author who makes a crazy $20,000 bet with his publisher that he could write a great novel in only 24 hours. To do so, the publisher gives him the keys to an old abandoned house where he won't be disturbed. Not true. Once he gets there he is interrupted by a multitude of guests including a family which consists of John Carradine, Sheila Keith, Peter Cushing and Vincent Price. They are gathered there in a twisted family reunion to release their brother from the room he's been imprisoned in for forty years. Even Christopher Lee drops by as Corrigan, the man who has just purchased the house. Soon, they realize that the caged brother is loose and out for revenge.
What a great plotline and what a dream cast! This movie should have been a hell of a lot better. It's hard to pinpoint the exact problems with the film, but I would venture to say that the lack of lighting was a major fault. Sure the house has no electricity but I think they took the title of the movie a little too literally. Scenes after scenes are barely visible and the actors' faces are undecipherable. Only the moments in the main dinning hall are well lit. Also, the great actors are given very little to do. Cushing gets a few chuckles as the scared brother but Price, Lee and especially Carradine are somewhat wasted here. Well, at least Price gets the best line of the film: `Please don't interrupt me while I am soliloquizing.' And on the plus side, the story has enough twists and turns throughout to keep one`s interest and the ending, while a bit of a cop-out, manages to surprise.
一部女性看了会提心吊胆的电影。每次只要想到哪个情节都可能成真，我就心里一咯噔。
片尾的反转如果不加，本来是一部很好的片子，可惜了。片尾搞砸了一切。
敢不敢大胆一些，别设定一个双商下线的丈夫角色来拖延剧情，或者就是女主的一场臆想最后杀了无辜的邻居。电影不能求鱼得鱼！
惊悚氛围和镜头美感都不错。男主从始至终就没信过女友，挺窒息的。有时候面相这东西不能不信
不太喜欢，匆匆跳过看了个结尾，不太喜欢这种无缘无故的单纯心理变态的情节
博恩戈曼一看就不是好人好不好！演坏人绝了！一个女孩来到异国他乡，连语言都不通，没有安全感，精神上比较敏感，作为丈夫还是要多了解多关心啊。监视者竟然是我自己…这个杀手完全就是一变态！本来还以为就是个误会呢…有些画面拍得挺有感觉，细腻
把那种融于生活的恐惧拍得好真实，并不歇斯底里但压得人窒息，只是结局依旧理想，你知道现实中不会是这样。
这个故事告诉我们：隔着窗户看就看，千万别傻不拉叽的乱挥手，会要命的。
女主也太绝了！这一手反转没想到呀！帮好友报了仇也惩罚了施暴者，舒服舒服！
当女性觉得害怕的时候往往并不是“想太多”。女主好聪明，用装死骗过凶手从而取枪杀了他（想起有一次在窗边坐着，扭头看见对面楼一个男的在看我……
太平庸了，最多能体会一下男人都理解不了的恐惧感和被当成疯子的崩溃
看完有被故事逻辑被鞭挞的感觉，氛围有了，可惜太假。
超级喜欢这部电影的色调和质感！冷色调YYDS！最后反杀真的爽爆！！😬
血腥比不上《窗边的女人》，惊悚甚至比不上《门锁》….
本来以为是偷窥题材，结果不是有点失望，而且没啥亮点，不看也罢
结局女主牛逼！！！
像是欧洲文艺片啊，镜头漂亮，色彩协调，剧情进展的节奏就特别慢，最后5分钟惊悚感才透出来，平庸。
还行 女人的直觉一般都不会错 最后脖子那一刀都已经氤氲地上一滩血了 竟然还能复活给他两枪 1470
4.最后女主大动脉都被隔了，流了这么多血，还活着？而且还能站起来！！
恐怖和懸疑氣氛營造得很好，不管哪一個結局都是一部好電影
