The movie started out promising with a "meet cute" in a toilet, but the
purported "stink" of that opening scene was actually a metaphor for the
entire film. Despite valiant efforts by the two leads, the script and
direction were so far fetched and over the top that no amount of good
acting could save this piece of schlock. Weird camera angles that come
and go for no apparent reason, an absurd wedding montage accompanied by
the entirety of "Flashdance", again for no apparent reason, a house in
Westchester filled with deer heads, again for no apparent reason...and
the list could go on for pages. Roberta Maxwell's performance is a hoot
for all the wrong reasons...like she has watched too many demonic
possession films. And, no, she is not demonically possessed in the
movie. The use of horror movie sound effects and strings to underscore
the supposed tension actually brought laughs from the audience. And
this is not a funny movie. What this film was doing in the Tribeca Film
Festival is beyond me; and, yes, I understand that it did well at
Venice. But...ugh. I'm guessing we won't see this film released on
these shores.
