With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Right up the alley of people who can't resist a good whodunit and horror fans. The investigation drives everything, one lead at a time. Shelve it next to Peeping Tom or Dressed to Kill.
- The mood
- Scary.
- The pace
- Builds dread steadily, at 1 hr 11 min. Done before bedtime.
- What might put you off
- It's in Portuguese, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Made in 1971: an older pace and style.
- Skip it if you need something light and fast tonight.
First film by Julio Bressane shot in exile, "Memoirs" is a film about a man who repeatedly kills the same type of woman in same places, the same way. Filmed on the streets of London.
