    Very powerful portrayal of a very scary woman. This is the best looking film of its genre I have seen in a very long time. The detective is a jerk, but I think that's the point for the payoff. Caroline Neron is amazing as the evil Countess Bathory. Or is it Countess Bathory? One wonders.... go see this for sure!

    Absolutely steamy, erotic thriller. Not a campy slasher movie, but a serious cat-and-mouse mystery with a Basic Instinct kind of heat.

    Too hot. Way sexed and crazy stuff. Caroline Neron is awesome as a killer. What's cool about this is that it's a really good mystery and every part of it is good.

    Much of the film rests on the shoulders of Conrad Pla who plays Raymond Pope. He is the focus of the movie and proves himself an excellent leading man.

    A handsome package whose atmospherics outclass merely serviceable plot and character elements.

    There's nothing wrong with formulas when they work, but Eternal is neither scary nor particularly sexy.
