"Fun movie. Very Lifetime-style (though thankfully not Hallmark!) in its depths and depictions. All 3 leads do good, fun work here. Enclosed booklet is thick!, with informative essays and a bevy of photos. Slipcover is done very well, too."
"Been after this film a while after hearing great things, wanted the Umbrella Limited Edition. Then I saw this in the daily deals in the last sale and jumped on it. Added to the top of our watchpile. Great cast and you know when Umbrella and Vinegar Syndrome are mentioned the restoration and transfer will be on point. Lovely release and packaging"
"Amazing cast, Great release, unfortunately i have problem with pace, it's a bit dragging, interesting idea though"
"A really solid slow-burn thriller."
"Another solid blind buy!"

"A Psychological & kinda Erotic Thriller. . . with EMILY BLUNT?!? - I'm IN!!! Bechdel Gaslighting! Psychedelic Dream Sequenzes! Old Skool Tempo with a simple premise & extra Surprise Plot Twists towards the end. . . . . . & Hey - Emily Blunt!!!"
"Good film"
"The performances from this cast are really incredible! The tension is definitely palpable and permeates this terrific thriller! It kept me watching from beginning to end and left me wanting more! The peerless VS restoration process was on full display with stellar sound and picture! Thank you, VS, for continuing to lovingly restore and release so many wonderful films from every conceivable genre! You are keeping physical media alive in this streaming world we now live in! Highly recommended!"
"Now this was a nice little Aussie thriller. Sam Neil was awesome as usual and it was fun seeing a young Emily Blunt. Really tension filled and Umbrella even gave us a few extras. Nice new discovery. Happy I brought this badboy."
