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).
正宗老式西部片的调子，传奇人物比利小子演义后传，犹如《水浒传》之阮小七被演绎成《打渔杀家》之萧恩。
我的特工父亲他那是被洗脑了
原来是讲比利小子的，但我根本不知道有这么一号人😂儿子这角色有点讨嫌…
示范西部宝刀未老。他们不是埋头苦干，只是不想出手，别抬头，你会没事的。
西部片的一波三折，还是跌宕起伏的。
血的教训告诉我们，活在旧西部，不义之财不碰白不碰，太机灵的人能不救就别救，多一门语言可以救命！有孩子就让他早一点学一门防身术吧！
简单粗暴的绝世神枪手，就喜欢这样的比利小子。
镜头，片尾的背景弦乐不错，虽然是寻常的西部题材，但最后老
前面漫长的铺垫，甚至都感觉不到紧张，最后二十分钟突然达到高峰，手起人倒干净利落，结局令人唏嘘，还是没明讲老亨利的过往，更令人好奇背后的故事。
非常西部的西部片，除了主角他娃有点出戏以外
四星不值，三星可惜。拿来当打牙祭还是不错，不无聊
没想到还能穿出来一系列
善与恶，爱与死，在2天的故事线里被完美展现。贪婪的本性制造出故事线，父子间束缚的父爱与对自由的渴望冲突，创造了关键节点。通过对话和事件导演干净利落的刻画了老亨利的不为人知的另一面。
波和麦金尼在门廊，加勒特闯进屋子，开了两枪...
西部题材的小品，短小精悍，尤其是最后揭示出比利小子的身份，于是顺理成章变成了英雄看破江湖后隐退的主题。文化迥异，就像美国人不一定理解黄飞鸿，我对比利小子也不会激动到颤抖。罪恶之源还是贪念，明明选定了余生道路，看到一包现金，还是伸出了手。所以，这不是英雄隐退，还是逃犯亡命。只不过西部就是弱肉强食，美国人只看武功好不好，不以道德水准论英雄。传统崩塌英雄难觅的今天，把经典ip拍出这种衍生水准，也难得。
三星半 想起和平饭店杀人王的故事 背负着过去的比利小子 西部的宿命 背叛 荒凉 与传奇。比较简单纯粹的西部小品。
混乱的西部，开始的想法没错，黑吃黑。
6.7/10 尚可，观影前需要了解比利小子的背景故事，不然全程谜语人
扮猪吃老虎+西部题材，男人不得不喜欢。
潮湿的泥土，肮脏的猪圈，衬衫发黄，菜汤易冷。就是这么old school。
