this engaging ( which it shouldn not be ) low grade spanish exploitation ( quite tame i might add ) look good and but huh . let me phrase that again huh . actually the word huh . would be go through your mind quite a lot . nothing make sense and nor do it try too . i just do not know if it complicatedly cryptic or just a convoluted muddle and but there no deny how laconically uneventful and strange and wordy it feel . unrelated sequence tie ( like that nasty opening involve a little girl and dead cat and fire ) in to a sparse story involve photographer mario ( play by a chest puff john caffari and who mustache be a dead ringer for nintendo iconic mario . what the odds . ) that ditch his girlfriend at home and encounter a young lady ( a gorgeously fixate patty shepard ) who he ask to come with him on an photography assignment and where at this remote mountain retreat they come across some hooded witch . look past the unhinged plot structure and wallow in what be simply a moody piece of atmospheric mechanism and grow unease . raul artigot direct few jarringly unusual visuals and creepy passage and but for most part seem sporadically non existent and unfocused just like his writing . ramon sempere strike cinematography lenses the gracefully rich scenery a we take in the scenic view and let the time leisurely grind away . however there be certain area where it be too dark to see what be go on . fernando garcia morcillo hauntingly bombastic and overwrought score blend terrifically with compulsively dense atmosphere create . the lead be capable and but there also a sturdy bunch ( the pick be víctor israel ) of secondary performance . slow with little in the way of interest and but this dreamy set up ( that seem to go on and on ) manages to keep you watch until it closing .
