A group of friends bound by various ties (loves, family ties, etc.) find themselves spending an evening in an ancient theater owned by one of them, Patrick (Chris Avram). Among them, however, beyond appearances, the atmosphere is not good, and everyone has good reasons to hate each other. When, after a previous attempt at murder, one of them is mysteriously killed, panic ensues and cross accusations abound. The remaining guests will try to escape, but it seems someone has locked them inside; other deaths will follow... A rather useless and inconclusive pseudo-claustrophobic film with an improbable plot and unintentionally comic dialogues at some points. Predictable in more than one passage, incomprehensible in others, it is not really an easy film to watch, given that boredom also sets in. Limited budget, cheap screenplay, mediocre actors, poor photography, the last florin was the best spent, for Paola Senatore's dance on the music of Carlo Savina, a scene that anticipates an incestuous embrace (there is everything in this film). A shame, because the cast, especially the female one, was really interesting (Howard Ross, Lucretia Love, Janet Agren, Paola Senatore, Eva Czemerys). Almost bad.
