Many others have analyzed this film's flaws, and they are there. I won't enumerate them.
But, this is the first time I've seen Asia Argento on film, and, guess what? She is definitely an ACTRESS. Basically, she is this movie, and she carries it off excellently. I couldn't stop watching, as she lead through one transformation to the next, in her descent into madness. Whoa!
One quibble: the ending is weak. Someone as imaginative as Dario could definitely have done much better. But, that said, I still give this film an 8 1/2. A disturbing masterpiece.
