This little flick has just about everything I look for in a thriller. First and foremost, I need to NOT know what's going to happen next. Right from the outset I was drawn into the lead character's life and virtually forgot about all of the hype that I had been exposed to. For the first half hour I fell into the character study of a woman who had lost her love of life and nearly forgot that this was going to be a thriller/horror film. Then things got ugly.

The color palettes used throughout were outstanding in bringing forth a sense of not only isolation but despair. The sound design in particular really struck me as being invsasive, but for the first time I can recall, in all the right ways.

Overall, INSIDE harkens back to the glory days of the Italian giallo films of Mario Bava and in particular Dario Argento, and I for one am excited that the new wave has finally made it to shore.
