A curio. - The Raven review by NP
This is the kind of film that makes it clear that you're not going to get a coherent narrative, and certainly not a finale that wraps everything up. Director, writer, and co-producer Ulli Lommel is determined to leave us scratching our heads. The approach is partly successful: we may not have much of a clue as to what is going on, but we continue to watch.
A macabre art-project then, which is difficult either to recommend or otherwise. My score is 4 out of 10.
