Paranoiac

"Paranoiac" is definitely a horror movie worth remembering. Its atmosphere is incredibly dense, partly because there are no unnecessary scenes. You constantly have the feeling that everything you're watching is absolutely necessary to achieve the desired goal, which is the climax in those final minutes. Yes, you might start suspecting the killer a little earlier, but that doesn't matter in this case at all. It's a great atmospheric horror with fewer characters and in a small space, something that many filmmakers today often fail to achieve. (2015.07.27)

An unusual Hammer movie; not a horror film, but an excellent psychological thriller, a foreshadowing of all those masked killers with something sharp in their hands (about a minute of pure time), solid atmosphere, a brilliant Reed, and a lovely Janette Scott. (2011.07.06)
