Isabelle begins to uncover the terrifying secrets behind Dr. Phillipp’s nighttime activities….

I love the first hour, in which we are still in our way to learn what's happening, the aura of the doctor, Bambi's feelings about her couple, studies, friends, illness. After we discover the main goal the doctor has, the film starts going nude in a sterile way. Some promising moments become lost opportunities since some scenes finish or start the same way: Bambi going to sleep or waking up. The credibility of the film is damaged when some actions happen without most people realizing out. Lighting and settings help to create a great mood.

The movie does not really work at so many levels, and yet there's something absolutely fascinating about Laurent Lucas' character. His face is so enigmatic, charismatic... He's more convincing as a prey (think "Calvaire" or "Lemming") than as a predator. There's always an aura of tragedy in his expression...
