Synopsis: A chilling and deftly filmed work on mental illness, murder, and family relations. Peter Winters leaves an insane asylum and starts to search for his only child, Nicole, who lives with her... A chilling and deftly filmed work on mental illness, murder, and family relations. Peter Winters leaves an insane asylum and starts to search for his only child, Nicole, who lives with her mother and his ex-wife, Melinda. Winters, a schizophrenic, travels in a car with the windows and mirrors covered in newspaper because his reflection obsessively disturbs him. During his search, a little girl is slaughtered in a mysterious way: her entire body is covered with blood, but her white dress is not. While Winters pays a visit to his mother, Melinda has an affair with the detective covering the case, who suspects Winters. The suspense builds to a hair-raising climax when Winters finds Nicole and coerces her into spending a day at the beach with him. [More]

Consegue retratar os sintomas da esquizofrenia de maneira particularmente eficaz graças ao brilhantismo de seu design de som e à atuação intensa de Greene.

Kerrigan, in the film's denouement, might have succeeded in defying our expectations to the extent that, as in The Sixth Sense, his victory renders what came before it superfluous.

Kerrigan succeeds in challenging stereotypes of mental illness as seen in movies and TV: Clean, Shaven is a stark ripose to the Hollywood notion that the mentally ill are fonts of simple wisdom and goodness.
