Reception

The film bombed at the domestic box office, grossing 11.6 millions lire. A contemporary Corriere della Sera review described it as 'a macabre little film that combines exorcist-style thrills with men's magazine situations' which 'unfolds in a certain atmosphere of mystery, but soon turns out to be nothing more than a fleeting soap bubble'. Italian film historian Roberto Curti also panned the film, calling it 'dreadful'.
