French
filmmakers Francois Gaillard and Christophe Robin deliver a full-blown
homage to the Italian giallo, specifically to the work of Dario Argento
and Lucio Fulci (with a nod to American director Brian DePalma). Essentially,
despite a rudimentary narrative, this is a series of chic murder-set-pieces
with emphasis on gore and gratuitous nudity.
Stunning
Clara Vallet plays Angela, a young woman constantly distracted by the
loud parties (orgies) in her neighbor's apartment. After the neighbor
is found dead, Angela discovers a crystal ball that reveals a horrifying
future that includes her grisly murder at the hands of a wild-eyed woman.
When that killer appears in real life, Angela knows she is destined
to become a victim.
