When I finished...I started over again and this was one from the second round, or maybe I didn't go back far enough the first time. At any rate, it was my own review and I liked it more this time. It's generally a "creepy kid" horror like Devil Times 5 or The Omen, but much more of a drama and the evil is more debatable (maybe just "quite resourceful kid"? )

Jodie Foster, Martin Sheen, and deceptive Matthew Modine imitator Scott Jacoby lend their talents to this low budget  (mostly takes place in the living room of a house), dank, and unpredictable tale of a young (Jewish?) girl and her struggle to survive in some random town while being bothered by adults who want her to do stuff like attend school. It's hard to have an interesting movie that takes place just in a living room, so some fairly jaw dropping stuff happens, aided by the excellent acting performances.

Jodie Foster is somehow always obviously a lesbian, but so enigmatic and brainiac seeming that it somehow doesn't matter. She, of course, become a huge star in Taxi Driver circa the year before, so this is, I guess, her Corvette Summer (Mark Hamill) .

4.5 / 5







I had a crush on Jodie Foster in the 70s and that was the reason my folks let me watch this.

I got so scared by it that I couldn't drink tea for a week afterwards 😉

I do not like New Order (at all), but I was interested in listening to the remixes by some musicians I do like (especially Howie B). Turns out the Howie was the only one I liked. Oh well.

never was a fan of New Order but they've somehow done 2 tracks I absolutely  love, 'Regret' and 'True Faith'... I can live without everything else!

similarly I can't stand Joy Division, although I really like Love Will Tear Us Apart.
