Greenes Please don't spend money on this.

Twilightfa Watch something else. There are very few redeeming qualities to this film.

Forumrxes Yo, there's no way for me to review this film without saying, take your *insert ethnicity + "ass" here* to see this film,like now. You have to see it in order to know what you're really messing with.

Fulke Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

HumanoidOfFlesh The main character of "Visions" wakes up in a mental hospital after a car accident.He's doesn't remember his past.He is an amnesiac,who wants to learn more about his life.With the help of his friend he finds in the archive of Dr.Leeman's some hidden files and videotapes of an unsolved crime case.The serial killer nicknamed The Spider is still on the loose.The visions of Matt are becoming more and more nightmarish.Deadly dull and suspenseless psychological thriller obviously inspired by "Saw" series.I don't see any connection with 70's and 80's Italian gialli.The editing is epileptic and the acting is pretty weak.The climax is extremely anti-climatic.Watch Austrian "Angst" if you want a proper serial killer movie.3 out of 10.

day_andy The opening 10 minutes, could have been so good, if it wasn't for weak acting and a poorly written script. Not to mention the fact that they dubbed another voice over a nurse.After that, the movie kept me guessing, I was certain I knew how the movie was going to end, then changed my mind again and again, until it ended the way I initially expected it to.It's a good psychological thriller about a serial killer and the movie only shows the violence that is necessary, which is in good taste.I liked this movie overall. It killed 100 minutes of life with the flu.In the end, I'm glad I didn't turn it off.

theoneis I've never gone the distance to comment on a film. This film was so bad that I was amazed at the current rating it has. I have to ask myself "How?". I tried to vote for it but every time I tried it came back: Sorry, there was a problem collecting your vote. Please try again...I even tried a different browser in the event that, that was the issue.I saw a lot of promise in this film that was totally tossed out the window. So much of what like so many other films could have been good was simply written with a lack of imagination and lack of effort for detail. I guess that would have to be my biggest complaint about the film. The total lack of detail.I've seen comic books with more detail than this film. That might explain why some of the films based on comic books are so much better.Not to be to harsh on the actors in the film but from the performances I don't feel they could act like they had to defecate if they had a box of laxatives.

Coventry The era of illustriousness for the Italian Gialli movies is long over and gone – more than twenty years already, in fact – but ambitious Italian filmmakers occasionally still breeze in to deliver new movies with plenty of echoes to this wondrous sub genre of European horror/thriller cinema. Some fine recent examples of this include "The Unknown Woman", "Eyes of Crystal" and "The Girl by the Lake". Luigi Cecinelli's "Visions" arguably also ranks high amongst these chosen few, although the parallelism between this film and the authentic Gialli of the early 70's is much more subtle and indistinct. Giallo-obsessed freaks, like myself, will undoubtedly spot the likenesses, but to the majority of normal film-loving audiences "Visions" will probably just comes across as a convoluted but solid, suspenseful and very engaging psychological thriller. Andrea Del Monte's script is perhaps slightly over-ambitious and pseudo-intellectual for its own good, resulting into a confusing and improbable finale, but some of the basic plot-ingredients and ideas are deeply impressive. And even though director Cecinelli and writer Del Monte are relatively inexperienced, "Visions" is also a skilfully stylish, coherently structured and adequately shot accomplishment. The opening ten minutes are unquestionably the best and most memorable ones, as they cover the latest onslaught of the smart and seemingly unstoppable serial killer known as "The Spider". In an attempt to rescue several of his captured victims at once, the entire police squad as well as the hostages die an excruciatingly painful death. The traumatized FBI-profiler Dr. Leeman resigns and returns to his previous job; psychiatrist in a private clinic. A certain time later one of his patients, Matt – an amnesia patient recovering from a car accident – accidentally stumbles upon Dr. Leeman's notes and records on The Spider's case and begins to suffer from nightmarish visions that are accurately illustrating the infamous serial killer's deeds. Suspecting some kind of psychic or perhaps even physical link with The Spider, Matt digs deeper into the case, in assistance with a fellow patient, a sexy journalist and eventually even Dr. Leeman himself. "Visions" may seem predictable and fairly obvious straight from the beginning, but there's a lot more than superficially meeting the eye. It's a puzzle gradually getting more difficult to solve with each piece that falls into place and you only comprehend the complete picture when the entire puzzle is solved. Your initial guess regarding the denouement might be correct, but nonetheless there are several twist and turns throughout the film that are simply too complex to predict. I realize this all sounds extremely vague and maybe even bit misleading, but it honestly would be a shame to reveal anything more and risk spoiling a potentially surprising viewing experience. Try and think of "Visions" like some sort of odd but unexpectedly effective crossbreed of "Saw" and "The Usual Suspects". The special effects are top-class and overwhelming, even a tad bit exaggerated sometimes, and there are a handful of moments of grisly violence. Hopefully this clever and zealous Italian production receives a proper distribution, as it deserves a wide audience.
