Thanks for the memories!
Such a frustrating disappointment
Expected more
Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.
View MoreYou can already tell from the rating I gave this movie that it's excellent. The reason why it's so good is because you have to consider the genre of the movie (in this case a thriller).This thriller is seriously worth your time and is one of those masterpieces that are overshadowed by lesser thrillers with lots of marketing dollars & hype to make up for the lack of great content.Don't underestimate this movie and don't underestimate Sharon Stone. I'll guarantee you'll see her in a different light after. She is truly a gifted actress and in this movie you'll come to appreciate her talents. This movie has all the ingredients of a stone cold thriller so don't rob yourself of this experience. I'm not gonna say anything about the plot all I can say is watch it!
View MorePossible Spoilers I saw this movie several years after "Basic Instinct" came out, and this movie, although it has its flaws is interesting. It is intriguing to watch Ms Stone play a sweet, shy child woman as opposed to a sexy killer as in Basic Instinct. The apartment she is trapped in is very curious and weird, the setting keeps you wondering what will happen next. The script could have been better and the plot should have been "filled out" a bit, but overall this is a very strange and intriguing flick that stays with you. This movie is currently showing a lot on showtime, usually late at night, I would say that this flick is the perfect "late night" flick to catch on the cable.
View MoreSharon Stone plays a disturbed woman who is a virgin and then attacked in an elevator and meets her neighbors played by Steve Railsback as twin brothers. The last part of the film has Stone trapped in an apartment and is slowly driven insane. Definitely a "B" movie with shoddy lighting and several different story lines going on at the same time with really none of them meaning anything. They're just thrown in to try and fool us. The one thing that was impressive was the special effects showing Steve Railsback as twin brothers in the same scene. Its fairly well done. Stone does the best she can with the material thats given her but you cannot blame the director solely. Stone just wasn't that good in certain scenes and at times it becomes downright silly. Vicki Frederick from "All The Marbles" has a role and Clint Eastwoods buddy Albert Popwell (Or Powell) has a part as a cop. Stone bares her impressive breasts for no reason at all which was enough to convince me early on that this was going to be silly and contrived.
View MoreThe atmosphere created in SCISSORS is quite intense, despite it's tele-movie leanings. It definitely seems an overlooked horror-thriller that leaves images lingering in mind, literally for years.If you liked "The Look-alike" I am sure you'll love this even more!
