Film6.3KorkuSymptoms, José Ramón Larraz'ın 1974 yapımı psikolojik korku filmidir. Helen Ramsey (Angela Pleasence), arkadaşı Anne'i (Lorna Heilbron) terk edilmiş bir kır malikanesine davet eder. Helen'in psikolojik dengesizliği, evdeki gizemli sesler ve eski misafir Cora'nın (Marie-Paule Mailleux) kayboluşu, Anne'i endişelendirir. Helen'in hizmetçisi Brady (Peter Vaughan) ile olan gerilimli ilişkisi de hikayeye gerilim katıyor. Larraz, aynı yıl Vampyres adlı lezbiyen vampir klasiğini de çekmişti. Her iki film de izole kır evlerinde geçen ve şiddetle iç içe olan kadın hikayelerini anlatıyor. Symptoms, Roman Polanski'nin Repulsion'ına benzetilse de, daha çok bir trajedi olarak öne çıkıyor. Helen'in psikolojik çöküşü ve kaçınılmaz sonu, filmin etkileyici atmosferini güçlendiriyor.
