I had watched it till around half way when i was far too young to watch it and my parents switched off the TV and sent me to bed when they saw me watching it, they realized how late at night it was no time for a little boy to be still up, let alone watching this. Twenty years later, last night, I finally watched the whole thing and I have to tell you it is truly downright impressive. Stefano is asked to come to this town to do his job in restoration on this painting by some crazy artist named Legnani who has a very morbid history. The townsfolk are all quite weird, when not in appearance then in behaviour, there is this constant eerie feeling and strange things begin to happen. Truth is the film gets stranger and stranger all the time till it reaches a most frightening climax at the end, but I don't want to spoil it for anybody, I just want to say it is frightening, almost as much as the final climax in 'Don't look now', who has seen that will understand me and if they liked that then they are bound to like this just as much as I did. You got two Italian sexy chicks in this too, with curves, not the artist's sisters, the first teacher and her replacement after she goes missing.
