Seen from the outside, it’s an old arch-windowed house overlooking a field isolated from the center of the village. But the rooms of this dark haven of demons hide unimaginable secrets. It was within those very four walls that an artist ordained to Lucifer killed himself with a razor blade in the winter of 1931. Many occultists maintain that his ghost still wanders like a shadowy agent of evil, desecrating the bodies of those who come too close to his hypnotic, diabolical allure...

This Italian SOV gem is a prime example of paranormal horror done right. It caught me off guard because I didn’t expect it to be so unsettling. I love haunted houses that ooze fog, provide candelabras and reveal an icy transparent hand floating separately from its body. A must watch if you’re a fan of SOV/found footage and David Lynch. It also reminded me a lot of a PC game I played years ago called Scratches. Watch here
Just the idea to have SOV shaky-cam accompany shrilled chamber music to heighten the unnerving atmosphere was fucking brilliant, which totally made up for the generic setup and oftentimes cheesy voice dubbing.A must-watch if you're looking for a spooky but refreshingly restrained eurohorror experience.
