Police are in hot pursuit of a criminal who is evading capture on a speeding motorbike. He takes refuge in an overgrown castle’s grounds and sees a pale woman burying a corpse in a shallow grave.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

Sergio Bergonzelli constructs a gothic thriller that relies on a pervasive atmosphere of decay and claustrophobia within the castle walls. It explores the dark impulses of greed and obsession, where each character is corrupted by their own vice.

What lingers after the final frame is a deeply unsettling feeling of moral decay and unresolved dread. The film leaves a sticky, psychological residue that is hard to shake. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Sergio Bergonzelli

Best Watched

Watch alone late at night, with the lights off, to let the film's oppressive gothic mood take full hold.
