Penilaian dan ulasan

Buyer beware, this brilliant film is not for everyone and almost defies classification. Possession (1981) resembles a horror film, but instead turns into it's own strangely entertaining arthouse masterpiece. Isabelle Adjani rightfully won her best actress award for her performance as her character goes into a realm far beyond madness. Andrzej Zulawski's masterpiece for me is a metaphor for cold war communism's insidious influence and how people during seduced by communism became strangers overnight.

Not possible to give a description... I think everyone will see something different in this movie. I thought of Lovecraft and the Cthulhu Mythos...
