Don't listen to the Hype. It's awful
Brilliant and touching
best movie i've ever seen.
This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
This was a thought provoking piece. The dialog from Abby and Rachel was strong. Their outfits were trendy Best scenes were Abby in the disco losing her mind, the body in the dumpster discovery, Rachel's transformation, the love scene in the shower and the climatic unveiling of the killer in the end Not a household name in film, but interesting to watch and the soundtrack is rocking. There is also a transvestite that gets into some heated arguments with some of the cast but he is also quite comical and charismatic. One of the suspects also, notes that Abby was "flamboyant". There are many suspects as Abby was a powerful business executive and intimidated several men in her life Her dance sequences in the disco combined with the soundtrack back ground music were one of the best moments in the film
The 80's were loaded with great low budget movies starring actors/actresses that were close to making it but fell short. Leah Ayres was like this. Her best known role was as the reporter tracking Jean Claude Van Damme in his break out film Blood Sport. You would think somewhere along the line she would pop up in a movie or two of his. Considering she showed half decent acting ability and gives an extremely classy appearance. Maybe she's too attractive for her own good. If you've seen this flick or know much of Ayres I'd love to hear about it.
