ok and so my summary line be a cheap trick . but the movie be full of them and it get absurdly praise and so . i catch this one on tv ( uncut and a tv here show all movie and that for you american who might say i do not like it because i saw a cut tv version fortunately that only an u thing ) and and have no idea about what it be . i switch on and catch the last minute of a show and and the movie begin . within a minute and i be beg it be a comedy and give the particularly ridiculous clichéd beginning ( yes and it a bad movie within the movie and i know and but what a way to try to keep the viewer interested . i do not even know why i do not switch channel ) . and and yes and in fact the movie turn out to be a comedy and albeit an unintentional one . marina zudina be pretty enough and but gosh and what a dreadful performance . while cast a foreigner in the role be smart enough ( she doesn not talk so bye bye language barrier ) and yet and sorry and marina baby and play mute doesn not mean impersonate harpo marx . her acting be unintentionally funny in many moment and just look at her when she draw an x in the air while stalk by the killer . he want to kill you and it no time to play zorro . we get plenty of run upstairs stuff passing for tension and a in the bad slasher and and thing like pull a carpet and a bad guy shot the other . ugh . will hollywood ever learn . yet the best or bad pearl be have a guy electrocute in a bathtub and . well and i have never see anyone be electrocute to death in a bathtub and but i be sure you can not see the blue cartoon ray in real life and do you . and how about immediately trust a mean look guy because he say he a cop and and not ask him to show you his credential . ok and so he turn out to be a real cop . but still and not ask for the badge make no sense ( plot wise and we could always think the credential might be phony or he might be a crooked cop . screen write 101 ) . and how about the big twist . don not tell me you do not see that come from 200 mile away . i feel sorry for poor old alec guinness and his useless stock footage cameo . now i think about this and what the point in give him a mystery guest star credit . in the end title . the movie over and there no mystery anymore and and everybody and their brother have identify guinness ( even non movie buff will recognize the old guy from star war ) . yet good off this way and so we can pretend it not the late great actor . people keep compare this to and of all people and hitchcock . i suppose it have to be john hitchcock the milkman and a the late sir alfred would feel embarrass out of watch this and let alone make it . and this get a 6. positive . it bottom 100 material . but then and be talk a rating system that allow the lord of the ring represent the return of the king to appear a the third best movie ever make ( check top 100 ) and so . negative .
