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).
徐贤长着一张老实女人勤勤恳恳的脸，这脸就像是不以物喜不以己悲，一生都在给资本打工的脸，这样一张性冷淡的脸配上看不出情绪的眼神，实在让人无法入戏
感觉比上一部好点儿，讽刺的点更有趣了。如果想知道米国去年有啥热点看这个就好了。自嘲的精神值得学习。what did I learned is 2021? I learned that nobody learned anything in 2020.
比2020好那麽一点，但真的就只是一点而已。(全片唯一我觉得说得对的就是，2021的人都没从2020吸取一丝教训)
豆瓣评分还是准的，确实不太好看。想看看对2021的总结和嘲讽，然后发现有点无厘头过了，没有干货。其中那个美国Cathy可真够典型的了，英国那个，听她讲话好累啊。
2021年的回顾总结，言语更加犀利讽刺。纵然今年糟心的事很多，也要满怀期待更好的2022。片中还不忘宣传自家的电视剧，没想到《布里奇顿》还挺好看的，一口前看完8集。
4. 社媒的能力是 monetize anger & despair
此时此刻当我看完这部电影的时候，不知为什么让我想起了2007年尾跨年之夜的那次中出……感受是一模一样的。
疫情给了我们太多的变化，我们需要慢慢接受慢慢解答
“我们都在努力寻找，那个能接受我们假面下真实自我的人；不放弃，继续寻找，方可有一丝机会能找到的人。只要遇到那样的人，哪怕人生天翻地覆也在所不惜吧。”
别人跨过了2021，我们倒回了2020，甚至是40年前，甚至是111年前。
Unfunny mockery, why did I watch this…
各种网上小视频拼凑的年终总结……这居然还是个连续剧……我们从2021年学到了什么，就是我们从2020年什么都没学到……
2022的第一天看了这部关于2021的片子。。世界还是不太平的。。似乎2020后就更加疯狂
确实就是观察者网（美国）拍的，解构性基本就在即将马上无铲大联合的状态，不过从吐槽角度来看，它的另外面相也不会有那么强的效果，只是腔调让人厌恶而已。
哇真的难说算不算电影 是不是打从有电视之后就几乎没有这样的长片了 或者本来就该是贴片短片集？ 电影往后会变成什么样儿啊hhh 冲着休叔看的，他怎么老成这样了！明明前两年看剧他还挺有型的！
冲击性有所减弱，但是在疫情未结束前每年结尾网飞都来这么一部犀利吐槽当年时事的片子也未尝不是个好选择，几处吐槽有趣又精准
最具讽刺意味的还是那个普通的美国白人女人，当面一套背后一套，老两面人了，跟网上的键盘侠们还真是异曲同工，看来世界各地的网友水平也是差不多的...
2020也去死，2021也去死，世界持续魔幻中，伪纪录访谈片，最主要例举了米国全年魔幻大事件。
