Marco Castellini

•
A lady, recently widowed, is tormented by terrible dreams that push her to the edge of madness, but it is a clever machination. Excellent performers (including Judith Meredith and Robert Taylor) for a film full of tension, skillfully directed by the specialist Castle. More thriller than horror, but still full of suspense. Recommended.
