A man wants to find out who murdered his cousin. The police cannot give him answers, so the man tries with a medium: he summons the spirit of his uncle, who, instead of giving him the answers he was looking for, kills his widow… As one understands from the brief plot, the screenplay and the subject of this horror film signed by the professional Merino appear confusing and, at times, unintentionally ridiculous (it seems to be in the middle of a family feud!). Moreover, it completely lacks suspense and is quite slow and heavy. Rather difficult to find, it is not worth seeking.
