OHHH SELF CONTROL BABY HELLO

this is truly camp horror and amazing hagsploitation i love a well written, complex, interesting relationship dynamic between two characters that isn’t defined by the story and writers being like “HEYYY LOOK AT THIS CRAZY OLD LADY SHES SO SCARY AND CRAZY HAHA RIGHT?” truly great motivations and mood built here by very straightforward storytelling. also this has like SUPERRR great suspense, i loved the camera work.  this is at the precipice of horror having stupid reiterations of tropes that are explored often here (crazy old ladies, evil sisters, twists and turns) and it has paved the way for so much of what we have today. it was super cool as a more like modern horror watcher to see so much of what makes some of these stories kinda dumb to me be truly innovative and compelling here.

yknow it’s not fun watching a movie about rape and exploitation full of a theater of fucking dumb chuds. thank you cinemark college station viewers for laughing at a woman getting tortured

amazing depiction of love and grief and how it manifests in people with wildly different upbringings. love is so beautiful and brings people together despite their flaws and struggles. amazing performances and soundtrack. oh ray liotta what a movie star :(( he’s so handsome and charming in this.  main selling point is that this is a truly phenomenal performance from whoppi goldberg. just perfect
