I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

I was searching the channels last night and ended up watching this. Not realizing what it was, I decided to sit and see what it was like. I was very pleased with the movie and thought it had a good storyline. This story centers around a young woman, Jeanette, who when around the age of eight to eleven, witnesses the brutal murder of her parents by a man wearing a floral print dress and a black wig. Being in an mental house since that night, her doctor convinces her she is cured and sends her up into the German mountains where she is to tutor three teenagers (Leon, Melissa, Lissy) in French. Still haunted by the murder of her parents, Jeanette starts to believe that the murdered is after her, when strange things start to happen... I won't ruin the ending or anything else.This entertaining, thriller leaves you guessing what will happen till the end. It did for me and I actually thought that out of all the things that happened in the movie, it wouldn't have turned out the way it did. One thing, if you get scared easily do not watch this in the dark! I did. It's not so much the murder scenes, but more or less the fact that the suspense and music got to me. Get sceneries, effects, plot, cast and direction. All round 9/10.

Just watched this movie a couple of hours back & i gotta say Valerie Niehaus who plays Jeanette has so much charisma that she keeps us intrigued & makes this movie into a decent German slasher. Also, i appreciated the gore but did not find the German humor to be funny. But what i really appreciated was the a lot of animals were killed in this movie - 3 to be exact! It leaves no prisoners untouched.....NO MERCY film making is what director Michael Karen intended for this film. Some real annoying characters such as Elle Some wasted characters such as Frau Luste and some underutilized characters such as Liesse made it a bit frustrating but as long as Valerie was on screen, it was cool

Ik like Horror movies very much. And I rented this movie because I liked the story. The movie is spoken in German, but that doesn´t mind me. I like story with big houses and this is one of them. The movie isn´t very scary but it is much fun to watch. 8 of 10

This film was an average slasher film that heavily copies other films already done in the genre. It isn't bad, but it's not great and there's really nothing new. The high point would have to be Elke Sommer playing the character of Frau Lust (that's pronounced Loost).The visuals in the movie are outstanding, if it deserves some praise then it is for the above average cinematography. The audio, on the DVD at least, is presented in it's original German format or a dubbed English format. I watched a few minutes in the German audio and it just didn't do much for me, and i enjoy native language films with subtitles. I can understand German very well, but i switched over to the English dub and enjoyed it much more. It's almost comical at times in the English format and i would recommend viewing it that way...it's just a touch over the top and adds to the whole experience.Another thing is...BLOOD, BLOOD, BLOOD. The annoying teenage idiots in the movie make you want to hate them and cheer for the killer hunting them down near the end.The ending? In one word, dumb. Why is it that every movie these days has to have some lame "Sixth Sense" shocker ending that makes little sense. It seems to be the trend these days and it's getting old.Conclusion: I give it a 5 out of 10. This is worth a single viewing for fans of the genre. I really don't have the urge to watch it again anytime soon, but i wasn't bored. People who are not fans of the genre will probably hate it...
