I'm not going to lie and say that I was really impressed with this or that I think this might be the best Giallo movie I have ever seen. Nancy Allen absolutely killed it in this, and I would call this her best performance from what I have seen. All of the characters were interesting, and the acting was great, but I feel this was not Michael Caine at his best, and he seemed a bit stilted for what he was going for. There were also a couple of weird cinematography choices in the elevator and near the end of the movie that I could have done without. I really enjoyed this one overall, though.
