6/10
Subtle and surprisingly moody ghost story from Brazil.
10 November 2014
Woman living in São Paulo goes to Gramado,South of Brazil to visit a friend of hers.Together they meet an odd woman who engages in strange experiences in parapsychology.From then on bizarre events are bound to happen.I kind of enjoyed "As Filhas do Fogo" by Walter Hugo Khouri.This slow-paced and ethereal thriller has some surprising plot twists and memorable scenes.Still it's not as good as Jose Ramon Larraz similarly themed "Symptoms".There is a bit of lesbian nudity and some moody scenes,but the action is very slow.The film lacks gore and violence too.It's very subtle,so anyone expecting wild and transgressive Brazilian horror in the vein of "Coffin Joe" flicks will be disappointed.6 ghostly manifestations out of 10.
