I don’t typically like older movies (black and white). This was enjoyable, the tension was really well done and the acting is beautiful.

Well directed, it maintains the tension, that use of shadows, that suggest rather than show

Gorgeous black and white horror film! Well-written story with fascinating characters, especially Irena. I love the backstory. I love how realistic the characters are, just the right amount, no overdoing or super dramatic. Very effective use of light and shadows. I enjoyed this one. Irena deserves better!

Really strange, not very good. The lead performances were painful to watch.

I'd rate this one an UGH out of 10 if I could.

This movie is prancing along like a romantic comedy, when, on what seems to be their second or third date, Oliver and Irena have this perplexing conversation.

guy: do you love me?
girl: mm-hmm
guy: you know I've never kissed you?

Simone Simon ("Irina Dubrovna") comes to work in New York where she falls in love with Kent Smith ("Oliver Reed"). Their relationship soon becomes strained after she struggles with intimacy - you see she believes that should she ever even kiss someone she loved, she would turn into a violent feline More
