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).

双重人格的形成，如果片子不是定型为恐怖片，也许蛋里孵出蛋是个“王子”守护小女孩
8分，90年代亚洲黑帮文化的写实之作，评分不高也许是因为与现在的价值观相比，显得太老套了吧，街头的情意只是传说，利益才是永恒的主旋律。
节奏很稳但剧情很无聊。没有一个元素是令人惊喜的。

都说女孩儿的成长环境不佳，但这点儿压力才哪儿到哪儿，是社会的常态罢了

北欧遗传厄运 女儿对于虎妈的反抗 怪物代表阴暗面的自己
一部看似平淡无奇的电影，讲述两人一鸟为爱迷失的故事。
越是美好的事物越容易破碎，因为它脆弱！人们在追逐它的过程中，不断编织着也遮挡着它的千疮百孔。闯进房间里的那只乌鸦也绝不是偶然，而是“孵化”前早就支离破碎的家庭溃坝。谁不艳羡这自然优美的环境和美好的家庭？恰恰这唯美的画面与污秽丑恶是永远对立的无法调和的，这才是这部芬兰电影最吸引人的地方。
这种电影已经不算是隐喻了，通篇都是人格分裂
太爱了太爱了
只是剧情有点乱，用刀杀的人，总是杀不死。
有些人死了，有些人离开，火热的东西全部消失，一切犹如幻觉，变得冷清，毫无意义，但我们又要在幻觉中活下去，将耻辱与悲伤深埋大海
以惊悚童话的方式隐喻了失败的家庭教育对孩子人格的畸形
