Italian horror back on track?

Fresh Italian director Gabriele Albanesi has done something that no other Italian horror/thriller director has managed to do since Argento lost his touch in the early 90'ies. This is a creepy thriller/horror in Italian style that promises much for the future if Albanesi keeps going in that same direction.

I had basically given up on Italian horror cinema, and here comes Gabriele Albanesi and gives us a sweet preview of things to come. Loved the two main characters, the actors really did an amazing job.

There are small issues, like the dialog between Sara and Alessio being slightly out of place, the pacing irregular at the beginning and other small issues, but I frankly wasn't bothered by them. Sergio Stivaletti simply did an amazing job on the blood and gore in the movie, but then he's a master.
