This film is very well written, directed, acted and executed. It contains some great humor. It works on multiple levels and has a lot of symbols (if Parigi was Lynch's pupil the master would be proud of him). However the film is very depressing, probably the most depressing I have seen in a while. And I being a big fan of dark comedies, do not get depressed easily.

I left the film in a very bad mood, a dire need of a strong drink and desire to see a silly comedy, action, romance - anything to get rid of the aftertaste...

I would recommend it to an emotionally stable connoisseur, though...

This movie goes into a little visited horror neighborhood: the realm of the creepy living mannequin. Up to this point, the best examples of this type of thriller would be Woody from "Fear" and "Pin" but Robert Parigi manages to deliver a more complex story than either of those films.

This creepy flick has a wonderfully depraved sensibility and seems to be marching to the tune of Roman Polanski's "Repulsion". Acting is solid throughout, and even Rip Torn seems restrained from his normal cartoonish antics. Rather than going for jump scares, this movie goes for a slow build of dread and suspense. There are a couple of good cringes in the movie, and it's definitely worth a watch.

''Love Object '' starts looking an average movie, showing the weird and lonely Kenneth Winslow, a technical writer, who starts having a bizarre obsession by Nikki, a rubber sex doll that he ordered, while developing a crush in his assistant Lisa. Kenneth goes to the point of talking, arguing and even feeling "stalked" by Nikki, and that's when the bizarre things starts to happen in his behavior.

The cool thing about this movie ,is the end,that is totally unexpected and the total opposite that you could believe that would happen. That's why I give this movie the nice vote of 7, because the plot itself, is very simple and nothing special.

The good message present, is that many people who look 'normal' or calm, like Kenneth, can have bad intentions behind their acts and even act like maniacs,while others can make us have false judgments about them, but are good people, like Kenneth's landlord, who tries to help Lisa from Kenneth's sick ideas of transforming her into Nikki.
