Title: O Fantasma
Review: Normally, I have a higher tolerance for "art-house" movies than most people, but "O Fantasma" was just too bizarre. And let's face it, folks: this is just a fancy, high-class porn -- a really messed-up one at that. It's just one sexually explicit scene after another without much of a story or dialogues, and what starts off as a weird, disturbing movie eventually becomes downright creepy. And what's up with the last 15 minutes of the film? I just found myself uttering "what the...?" over and over again. Also, much has been made of the fact that the movie is almost entirely filmed at night, but I found that rather annoying. It was like looking through a series of under-exposed photographs and my eyes are still hurting from squinting so much. It was "intriguing" though, to say the least. I'll give it that much.
Is the review positive or negative?
