3.0 out of 5 stars
DVD transfer too far zoomed in, October 5, 2002
This review is from: The Dummy (DVD)
The DVD transfer cropped off actors heads, short-changing
visual nuances and award winning cinematography. Good example of
how script and final editing make or break a performance or film.
The female lead, Irina Bjorklund, won the Academy Award for
Best Actress overseas in Finalnd after many successes there. She is
famous throughout Europe. This is her first American film.
It's an eerie character study of the effects of schizophrenia
and not at all the gory slasher the poster makes it out to be.
Gorehounds will be greatly disappointed. Beware.
Best seen on VHS, NTSC version available in America.
