I've been a fan of Italian horror and western flicks, mainly giallo and other old genre films of the 60's, the 70's and the beginning of the 80's.This movie just proves to me that the contemporary Italian cinema is merely a shadow of its glorius past. In the old days movie makers had ambition and vision and could accomplish appealing internationally released films with limited budgets. Now everything's changed. I feel sorry to say that the film looks like that it was made with a budget of about 50 000 euro at least, but never 1 million. I wonder how they managed to spend all that money as it really looks that cheap.The movie doesn't engage, it doesn't have good actors and it just doesn't work. Where's the movie magic? It just looks like sequences composed of video clips with same boring music. I don't like the accents that some characters have and none of them really are that interesting.Digital era has made filmmaking so much easier, so that films are made even without a good script and storyline and the results are quite obvious. Just skip this one. It isn't horror.

Well what can I say? I can accept that not everyones taste in movies is the same. But i'll eat my own DVD player if anyone could be so utterly brain damaged to like this pile of garbage. A bunch of girls go to an island on a lake to do a "Water Fast". Yup, they just drink water for a few days. Supposed to clean the body and spirit. Well watching an hour and a half of some ugly girls drinking water,is not my idea of entertainment. I waited and waited for something to happen, as this was categorised as a horror move. Nope it's a horrible movie not a horror move. The highlight's..One of the girls goes into a bathroom and makes a small cut on her shoulder. One of the girls gets a stone thrown at her head. For god's sake, is this the limit of the production teams imagination?. Give up trying to make movies boys, and go back to trying to scare little kids with a matchbox and a plastic spider. Don't waste any money or time on this insult to movie making. I turned it off 10 mins before the end..Maybe 1 hour and 20 mins too late. Rubbish.

H2Odio is the third movie by Alex Infascelli, a talented Italian director, with a great love with amazing cinematography and video clip directing... I have to admit that I don't really enjoy video clip directing (except for Shinya Tsukamoto's amazing style) and this movie is THE MOVIE WITH A VIDEO CLIP DIRECTING, but, I have to admit, it's visually impressive! The really problem of this movie is this: it's visually impressive, but nothing more else...acting and dialogs are not sooooo bad (they aren't bad at all), you never have the impression to watch a bad film, but the whole screenplay is a bit weak...I have to say that is really hard to find horror/thriller movies like this in Italy nowadays, Infascelli is a director who wants to experiment (some sequences in H2Odio are really amazing if you like Digital Shots) so this work is important for Italian "creepy movies", and for this reason I hope that Alex Infascelli will pay more attention on the substance in his next movies, 'cause a great cinematography and amazing camera movements makes an interesting movie, but not a masterpiece..Anyway, bravo Alex! and Chiara Conti confirms her as a talented actress...

Strange thing!one of the most interesting and visually superb thriller/horror movie of the last decade is just edited on sale and not in the cinema!!. Infascelli (the director of the overrated "Almost blue",but nowadays one of the most skillful Italian directors besides Garrone and not so much others )spreads on the screen like a psycho painter a bunch of really morbid images ( a pretty good mix of psychedelic visions and video-clip style), shrieking about a descent into the madness… Everything in this movie (actresses,location,color, music and obviously…the water..) create a really sick thing!If you are not on diet, it's unmissable!
