Curtis Harrington, a director as interesting as he is unknown who did his first work on the B series, tackles here a project with more budget and more pretensions that lets you see and makes you hang out but that does not go much further and is too predictable .
Reminiscent of movies like Les Diaboliques (Henri-Georges Clouzot, 1955) or Gaslight (George Cukor, 1944), the great asset of this psychological thriller is the presence and great acting on of Simón Signoret (who was in 1955 film), in addition to the beautiful photography and the adequate recreation of a morbid and somewhat perverse atmosphere that as the plot film progresses is becoming more oppressive.
