Why it’s a Weeknight Watch

With little lasting buzz, it's a mixed bag. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Right up the alley of readers who like to compare the book and the screen version and anyone who enjoys a good scare. Adapted from a book, so readers can compare notes. Same wavelength as The Devil's Advocate or The Devils.
The mood
Scary.
The pace
Tense from early on, at 1 hr 27 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
What might put you off
  • It's in Spanish, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Made in 1970: an older pace and style.
  • Not the one if you want explosions or easy laughs.

A young woman is lured to an island paradise, where she is drawn into a dark world of pleasure, pain, and murder under the control of a sinister figure.
