Based on Daphne Du Maurier's gripping occult thriller. When a little girl is accidentally drowned, her parents go to Venice to try and move on. There they meet a strange clairvoyant, who tells them their daughter is very much alive - and gives them ominous messages from the grave. As their whole world starts to disintegrate around them, everyday objects turn into omens of doom and ordinary events become terrifying. The father (Sutherland) begins a frantic search for his daughter, through the deserted canals and menacing alleys of Venice in winter, into a world where nobody can be sure what is real and what is illusion until the macabre and shattering climax...

Glorious Sadness, Incomparable Theatre

From the tortured, raw scream of paternal loss to the watered streets of Venice to the inevitable 'shock to the bone' denoument - this is one of the great films from the 70's.
If you feel you know movies and the big screen then this is a must for your collection.
First viewing - slow, beautiful looking, enigmatic, then you feel 'what happened then?'
Second look - you understand more and see more
Continued viewing - each time you appreciate the art of cinema more.
Roeg was a master.
So boring

I got this becuase i saw in reviews that its one of the better horror/thrillers of all time .. but i found it to be slow and very hard to get into.
Stick with it. It's a very good film.

I found this film a bit hard to get into at first but I stuck with it. It is a film you have to concentrate on. A real chiller that kept me guessing and the ending totally surprised me. Brilliant acting by Donald Sutherland and Julie Christie. The directing is also excellent. Definitely look now as it's well worth watching.
