Reception
Reviewing the 2011 MGM DVD release, Paul Mavis of DVDTalk.com wrote, "A disturbing, sensational aural/visual experience. Writer/director Elio Petri creates a completely unstable environment for his tale of personal madness, artistic chaos, and supernatural violence. Vanessa Redgrave and Franco Nero are beautiful to look at here."[2]
