This film is an extremely entertaining psychological thriller with Carrol Baker excellent as a rich American widow getting away from it all at a secluded Italian villa. Enter smart aleck down on his luck playboy, Lou Castel, who has some golddigging motives behind his slick hipster seduction techniques and has no qualms about how he gets what he wants. He encourages Baker's character's incipient alcoholism and dubious self-esteem, brings in his supposed 'sister' to help drag Baker even further into a maze of sick mind games, drug addiction and group sex, all culminating in a descent into near-madness and self-destructive depravity.
I won't give away anymore, suffice to say that the film delivers on its swinging sixties, Euro sleaze ambience and psychological suspense thriller credentials in spades. Director Umberto Lenzi's work has been, at best, uneven and he's churned out his share of crap. However, he made some quite good giallos and crime pictures in the sixties and seventies and this is one of them (other good films by Lenzi -- SPASMO, SEVEN BLOODSTAINED ORCHIDS, ASSAULT WITH A DEADLY WEAPON, to name only a few).
Unfortunately this film is ofen confused with another okay but not-quite-as-good Lenzi film that was also released briefly here in America under the same PARANOIA title (but is more commonly known, especially on video, as A QUIET PLACE TO KILL).
两点：1）什么样的神经病才会在profile上放自己拿斧子和大粗绳子的照片；2）老板问“you run at the very first sign of imperfection, why didn’t you run?” 这还不简单吗，她跑到pub里结果过敏差点去世，所以女主的确跑了，是机缘巧合没跑成。有点俗是真的不过有些情节还是蛮好的，改编的歌不错，Saito看着就是个好爸爸。
最后love actually那段还不错 Christmas vibe加持 不算特别难看 始终还是很难相信女主会喜欢男主
R/asianmasculinity 估计要炸天了 感觉要有屌丝分析攀岩场景 很难想象如果情节上性别倒换一个亚裔女去到一个白男家会是什么歧视+mircoagression
哈哈，听说这个片子里有欧阳万成而且有攀岩场景才去看的！剧情虽然不令人惊奇，但还是挺好笑的。看一篇幕后采访里说，在攀岩那场戏里，欧阳万成和妮娜（女主角）在现实中和电影里的特点其实正好是反过来，欧阳万成非常恐高，而妮娜天不怕地不怕……
套路下的反套路，又或者是反套路下的套路？虽然后半段的情节都能猜到，当成圣诞档的小甜饼还是不错的～
社交软件恋爱的人儿们必看佳作。契合的灵魂真的比外貌更重要吗？josh第一时间去追Natalie很关键。Natalie也没有做到完全的honest，但是结局回归自己内心还是好的。love actually是最棒的圣诞爱情电影，电影中致敬的桥段不少。心灵和外表都很重要，相辅相成。真心换真心！
Netflix版租个女友回家过年（圣诞）…在dating app上搞phishing还能有好人吗？也别给垃圾找补了:)
前半段还可以，编剧把欧阳万成这角色写得挺细腻挺有内涵的，后半部分就没意思了，老土的爱情套路，高潮必演讲，结尾必幸福（又又又一次真爱至上的桥段）唯一感激的是Netflix还真的坚持给亚裔演员机会，这点我是很respect.

unrealistic，and confusing….
Family movie 🍿 average~~~~
妮娜还是漂亮的，但这片是真的怪。我不知道女主是真的喜欢男主，还是喜欢男主家人带来的氛围感，反正在男主的假求婚之后还能跟男主在一起是我想不到的
说俗套也俗套，说不俗套只因为是亚裔男主角？
Asian male lead who’s not hot is just what we need
rom com里面蛮好看的了 笑点也挺多了
和love actually的连结 加一星
奈塔丽对猕猴桃过敏的时候，在酒吧唱歌那段真的笑死，表现狂魔表哥欧文也超级搞笑😅😅😅
貌似找到了我第二中意的圣诞电影！当然，《真爱至上》榜首位置依旧不能撼动，但这部真是意外之喜啊！好喜欢这个结尾！jimmy yang的演技真细致！Elena老了但依旧美丽～

爱情小品，总之还不错，女主的颜值稍微有点崩，不过不算太影响，主要没有想到的是欧阳万成的演技挺不错的。
