A stellar
Leading lady
"Razskazoff’s moment of foreshadowing occurs with a foreboding chill, her body writhing in uncertain agony as the notion of her nightmare and dawning realizations fill her head to the point of erupting... She is the stellar leading female among the three and is well deserving of an encore."
