*Il Nascondiglio Degli SPOILERS*
A woman (Laura Morante) finally leaves the psychiatric hospital in which she has been for 15 years, following her husband's suicide.
She resolves herself to get on with her life and open an Italian restaurant in Davenport, Iowa, and precisely in the old building called Snakes Hall, which hides a horrible secret; on Christmas Night, 1957, when the house was used as a pensionate for old women run by nuns, the Mother Superior and the lone two guests were horribly murdered, while the two Novices that were also there vanished into thin air...
And as she delves deeper and deeper into the mystery, everything seems to become more and more dangerous, and not only for her...
An intense, taut thriller which genially exploits the 'haunted house' theme, 'Il Nascondiglio' ('The Hideout' in the USA) is also helped by an expert director, Pupi Avati ('La Casa Dalle Finestre Che Ridono') with actors such as Laura Morante ('Un Viaggio Chiamato Amore'), Treat Williams ('Hair', 'Everwood') and many many others, and a well-written, suspenseful script.
For the fans of suspense and terror, a movie not to miss!
Il Nascondiglio: 9/10.
