Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe first line of the title track "You" states "You represent everything I detest in a man." and then goes on to individually catalog these detestable qualities, pretty much summed up in the character Maurice. Appropriate then, that he should choose to put on the record as soon as he arrives at the hunting lodge, plotting Helen's death.
- GoofsWhen Helen finds the missing washer for her engine in Maurice's breast pocket, there is no explanation, other than maybe x-ray vision, that she should know it was there, particularly as Maurice would have been unlikely to fool around with her engine in a dress suit.
- Quotes
Lily Harmer: You represent everything I detest in a man.
- Crazy creditsThe opening credits are shown against a background of scenes from the movie, but in negative form.
- Alternate versionsThere are two versions available. Running times are: "1h 34m(94 min)" and "1h 28m(88 min) (Spain)".

Featured review
Incredibly cool looking movie
I was somewhat confused as it appears that Italian director Umberto Lenzi, who will always be known in my book for his notorious cannibal flicks, has two movies that share the same alternative title, and they were only made one year apart. Even on the disc extra he seems a little confused himself when talking about it!
Anyway, this Paranoia is not a horror movie, Furthermore there is no unknown killer, we know who the killer is, but the police don't. So I'd be hard pressed to call this a genuine Giallo, though it certainly has some traits of that sub-genre. As is so typical of Italian movies from this time Paranoia is stunningly beautiful, every scene is like a piece of art. Accompanied by beautiful naked women, fast cars, bottles of J&B whiskey and a jazzy soundtrack this is a very cool movie, with some great plot twists and turns One of the highlights is a fast car ride along a winding road with sharp hair pin turns and sheer drops into the sea. It actually made my palms sweat!
Great movie.
