Plot Summary

Working with elements of the traditional horror genre - second sight, ESP, warnings from the dead, a mad killer - and cinematography of disquieting beauty and dreamlike sense of dislocation, director Roeg weaves a fabric of anxiety that questions all reality. The evocative use of the back streets of Venice is a sinister participant in the action based on the novel by Daphne du Maurier. This intensely erotic and macabre film boasts outstanding performances by Julie Christie and Donald Sutherland.

Top Critics' Reviews

Fresh: That dwarf in a red raincoat will fry your nerves. – Peter Travers, Rolling Stone, Aug 21, 2013

Fresh: Don't Look Now uses the occult and the inexplicable as Henry James did: to penetrate the subconscious, to materialize phantoms from the psyche. – Jay Cocks, TIME Magazine, Aug 21, 2013

Fresh: This British-Italian suspenser, in which the horror gets to one almost subliminally, as in Rosemary's Baby, is superior stuff. – Variety Staff, Variety, Jul 7, 2010

Fresh: Roeg maps Sutherland's disintegrating psyche onto the city of Venice, with its labyrinthian alleys, murky canals, and crumbling facades. – Amy Taubin, Village Voice, Jun 24, 2010

Horrible

I read all the reviews and got sucked into believing this had potential. I have no idea how legit movie critics could rate this move so high - it is bad and a complete waste of money. The story is painstakingly slow, the plot is highly suspect, and the acting is poor at best.

Overrated film with spotty acting and a tired story...

I really have no earthly idea how this film got anything close to a good review. There is nothing scary or good about it, and it's nearly downright ridiculous. Sutherland is great, but overacts so much that it's hard not to cringe, and the story just spins its wheels the whole way through to the (non) climax. If this is what GREAT "classic" horror is, then count me out.

Horror for Adults

A chilling look at that point where the psychological and the supernatural intersect, "Don't Look Now" boasts two major stars, a gripping story and a sinister, hallucinatory mise en scene. An intelligent, occult thriller for adults, based on a story by Daphne Du Maurier.
