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).
从悬疑电影的角度来说是不太合格的，悬疑性紧迫感都差点。但你代入当下社会女性真实处境的时候，你便会在观影过程中感受到女主的那种压迫感不安全感。男主能共情合理化凶手的监视，却不能共情自己老婆的不安，这才是影片真正惊悚的地方！
女性导演拍的片子的确在情感刻画上更细腻一些，片中几处恐怖氛围营造的还是很好，如果我来重新设计海报，窗户、地铁、俱乐部三个场景拼成一个大的第三者观察的图
-“那我走？我走还不行吗？！”
文本很老气，女导演要表达的女性困境一开始就已经说清但在随后一个小时里并没有更多的深入以至于整个故事都缺乏变化和惊喜，倒是选角很合适，麦卡很适合演这种身处困境中的孤独女性，而戈曼就很适合演寡言的变态
Cliche, but still a good one. 细节经不起推敲，比如结局为什么凶手明知道丈夫在隔壁打了电话还直接出门，再比如割喉流这么多血还能直立行走。Something totally random: 女主某些角度有些像姚晨？以及being multilingual是一个多么大的优势hhh
这类题材的鬼电影我已经烦了，千篇一律的男主不相信女主，女主生气，最后反杀，这类剧情毫无意义
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。
让男的相信女的有多难？姊妹情谊泪目......
氛围感很不错。近年比较流行这种窥探类电影。
现实里应该很少有人会注意到吧，一旦注意到，也很少会像她这样，想看又不敢看的
画面挺电影感的，配乐也挺吓人。一颗隐约的头，朦朦胧胧的，真的是永不过时的惊悚画面呀～
PS：恐怖片的警察果然是没有用的，抓到的凶手永远是假的。女主最后反杀有点反逻辑啊。
男女主演太呆，反角也就那样…电影呢算挺好的，也就这样
命案频发心胆栗，说与丈夫总不信。
很精致的一部惊悚片，但应该女性更能理解这其中的惊悚元素吧…
2.男主不是《爱恋》男主么，演技真的浮夸。
无法共情的只能嫉妒你们好幸运。
当着丈夫的面把自己的nightmare杀死，指向性是非常强的，同时摄影也不错，值得一看。
氛围感很不错。近年比较流行这种窥探类电影。
Burn Gorman一露脸还会有人觉得他没问题吗（。剧作相对平庸，让它不那么差是因为一些细节把握得还可以，以及确实能让一些被尾随过的观众——比如我——有被trigger到。我也得进超市或步行街去把尾随者甩掉，我也曾经把这种事告诉朋友，结果是被嘲笑（surprise），或者听到对方说“像我们这种丑人就不会遇到这种事”。似乎他们觉得自己有在安慰或者出主意，就像电影中的所有其他人一样，结果往往是我们说了第一次，听到这种可笑的反馈之后，就再也不会选择寻求他人帮忙。女主至少有胆子反侦察
