Perfectly terrifying, 30 July 2008
8/10
Author: enrennium from Elba Island, Italy

A Swiss clock. The times of this film are perfect, the tension slowly grows and build into the spectator a feeling of impatience, that can be attributed to an excessive slowness in some actions, but that instead it is the deliberate result of a good direction. The rules of the fear change, a situation of terror is not introduced suddenly, but it gradually passes from a long series of feelings that exponentially increases of gradation without immediately reaching the physical brutality. Courtesy, embarrassment, irritation, hostility, contrast, pain, fear, terror they slowly follow holding in tension who looks. Haneke has seen Hitchcock and a lot of times. See it with the family.
