Inesperada y poderosa película que enseguida sorprende por su excelente banda sonora -C. Gunning- y cuya trama argumental también se apodera del espectador en los primeros minutos de la proyección.
La historia posee enjundia intrínseca y el guión de L.W. Davidson le proporciona una cadencia rigurosa de gran efectividad que la sume en un contexto siniestro con una dosis enorme de intriga desazonadora.
Descripciones minuciosas, sombras psicológicas opresivas y susurros del pasado pronunciados con voz entrecortada configuran un espacio misterioso con pleno sentido.
La estructura del film es magnífica y P. Sasdy sabe obtener el máximo potencial de un amplio elenco.
