Intimate Crimes

About This Movie

Intimate Crimes is a real curiosity in the crime-horror genre from '96. The plot revolves around Paul, who’s got his sights set on eliminating his wife Claudia so he can be with Valeria. The twist? Claudia’s hired a bodyguard who, unbeknownst to her, is the very killer Paul has in mind. It creates this tense atmosphere where love and betrayal intertwine, and the pacing has a slow burn that really ramps up the suspense. The performances are intriguing, especially how the bodyguard’s feelings shift towards Claudia, which adds layers to the horror. The practical effects, while not groundbreaking, serve the story well, keeping the focus on the twisted relationships rather than flashy gore.
