SandyDHancock I can see how this is not to everyone's liking however I truly think this is an above-average indie film. Very well done overall. Excellent acting, beautiful cinematography, intense mood and a great Italian locations.It is way better than most "blockbuster" films in this general category although I agree with most reviewers that it doesn't quite fit nicely in the "horror" genre. It is not full of cheap scares. Instead it relies on a family tragedy as one couple tries to overcome the loss of their child.It could be described as slow perhaps at the beginning, to some, yet I did not personally sense that it was overlong. It kept me quite engrossed throughout.I highly recommend this intelligent independent, skillfully made film.

jtindahouse Wow this was bad. Imagine every bad quality a film can possibly have and this one most likely ticks that box. The acting is the most plain-to-see of all the things wrong. It's absolutely unbearable. Bret Roberts in particular gives one of the worst performances I can remember watching in a long time. Then add in the fact the dialogue is as poorly written as you'll ever see in the modern age of filmmaking and that just makes things twice as bad. Then there is the direction. It truly is all over the place. Loud noises are used time and time again to give the audience a jolt, yet there is never any tension in the scene to begin with. Early on there is a chase scene through the woods with literally no explanation that anything could possibly be following her. How is this supposed to make an audience feel? I've never given a film a 1 in all my years on IMDb. I've always managed to find at least something good enough to bump it up to a 2. 'The Perfect Husband' was going to be a 1 had it not been for the twist. Not that the twist was overly good, nor in any way original, but it did make some of the unbearably bad plot holes at least explicable. It did raise another question though, which was, did the violence in the film towards women really need to be as explicit as it was? This is a very different film to the likes of 'I Spit on Your Grave' where the graphic nature of the violence has a purpose and is building us extra sympathy for the character. Here, it truly was the definition of gratuitous. A real misfire that should be avoided at all costs.

yell_in_hell i waited for so long to see this film.i saw the short film Lucas Pavetto did before this long exhausting version.the short film was so good ,the actors the tense between then and the gore was all perfect in the first short version so i ask again,why destroy the great memory of the first version with this bag of crap ?Gabriella Wright and Bret Roberts give weak performances (wright don't deserve this role)there is no chemistry between the actors.the other thing that ruined this movie is the long and boring script .this version is so boring that after the first half hour you know the end(if you saw enough horror movies from all over the world trough the years)you feel cheated after an hour again Gabriella Wright is so bad in the role she practically betrays herself in the first act. i give it 4 only because i saw the first i know Pavetto's mind can do much better than this. this proves again that American versions always fails....always!

richibichi-80737 Nice psychological horror film. It's a low budget movie but it's stylish and well filmed. It is disgustingly brutal, and emotionally draining but it's beautiful and artistically drenched. The story is heavy with rich symbolism, the acting is brave! The cinematography is genuinely beautiful, nice plot, nice soundtrack and good atmosphere. The movie is alienating, loved the final twist.... A very stylish, tense film, truly a suspense-thriller-horror to be proud of from the Italy, It marks a return to the style of old school horror directors such as Dario Argento, Tobe Hooper and John Carpenter. i'd suggest you give it a watch
