Teorema aka Theorem (1968) (5/10)

Dubbed as an intellectual thriller about passion and death, the film doesn't say much, neither do the characters. But there is a haunting atmosphere in the somewhat jumpy film. Its about an Italian family and the transformation of its members by a single individual, a visiting stranger. Some people are bound to find the proceedings objectionable. Does it make a statement? I think so. Is it clear? Perhaps not. It has many references that are hidden and so shall the interpretations be. Its almost entirely upto the viewer as to what to make of it.
