As much as I appreciated this flick's style (which was indeed well above
US standards, as is most of the horror I actively like), I couldn't
escape the sense that what it thought were telling blows to the viewer's
psyche were missing their mark, maybe culturally. E.g., the woman's
horrifying "sin" just *had* to land more softly in NYC than in Tehran.
