VeteranLight I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.
Stevecorp Don't listen to the negative reviews
Sexyloutak Absolutely the worst movie.
Dana An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.
Jon-Kyew Publique Prosaic and predictable gore-fest. If creating memorable horror was as easy as the makers of this series seem to think it is, all a slaughterhouse owner would have to do is offer a tour and voilá--the next Edgar Allan Poe!Seen several episodes now and only two things set "Jenifer" apart: a more-than-average enthusiasm for presenting the slaughter of children for our delectation (well, in fairness, one child and one teen. And one kitty cat) and its utter predictability. Its ending was more easily foreseen than the loss of Iraq.Really beginning to wonder now why I gave it that second star… Oh, right. Boobies.
nelsona-876-66758 One of the best messed up movie's i've ever seen! I've seen a lot of horror movies of all kinds probably thousands. I absolutely love this movie. I would so recommend it, if you are in the mood for some creepy and messed up crap. It's kind of a dark mood though which made my rating an 8 but otherwise I loved it. It's mainly about this girl that has a creepy face and everyone thinks she's evil so nobody cares about her. They say when you find love nothing else matters. I guess in this movie it kind of goes hand in hand. It's story had a lot of sexual matters. I got to say a lot of gibberish in this next couple lines so I can end this review loll. WATCH THIS MOVIE! You should really like it. Keeps you thinking..
Eli Elliott i absolutely LOVE Argento. Suspiria is in my top five favorite horror films of all time, and I've enjoyed MOST of his other works. I don't think anybody would dispute though, that as he's grown older, his confidence as a director has waned. Jennifer is undeniable proof of this, although I can't pretend that the blame lays squarely with him. I've always liked Steven Webber as an actor (I thought his Jack Torrance in the made- for-TV Shining was quite good), but he should maybe take a break from writing; the script is almost unbearable. Jennifer is based on a short story which I've never read, so I don't know just how much dialogue Webber ripped from it, still...someone on set should have been smart enough to know that "If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it's a duck with a meat cleaver," is just bad writing. And the dialogue isn't the only problem. --------Spoiler -------Why, oh why doesn't he just kill her in the cabin? I mean, seriously...He ties her up, drags her down a ROAD when he has a perfectly secluded house to off her in. C'mon. There are a lot of moments like this, too. A couple logical failings would be forgivable (let's face it, every horror movie has a few) but I was scoffing so much it sounded like I was coughing up a hairball. -------End of Spoilers-------Now, back to Argento. Ultimately, I think he was the wrong director for this. He's not exactly known for subtlety, his earlier works being highly explicit, graphically-speaking, and I think Jennifer would have benefited tremendously from even a tiny bit more delicacy.
super marauder I have heard of Dario Argento and the movie that keeps coming up is Susperia. To this day, this aside, I have never seen any of his movies. But I feel that's going to change.This story is about a police detective who's kind of bored of life who shoots a man who is trying to kill this woman. The only problem is this woman is drop dead gorgeous....from the neck down! Her face is hideously deformed. But there is something about her that he can't let go. He brings her home and his wife has a problem with it and his teenage son is impressed with her body. But once he falls under her spell, his life falls apart. But still, there is something about her he can't let go.Carrie Ann who plays Jennifer is FANTASTIC! She is so into that character that as a guy I can see how you fall for her. But it raises some questions. Is Jennifer a space monster? Was she raised by animals because her parents left her in the woods for dead because she is deformed? Maybe a government experiment gone wrong. Who cares! But it also deals a little bit on how people treat other people who are not 'normal looking'.I watched it with my wife and she jokingly said this shows how stupid men are when it comes to sex. Yet, it did remind me of this girl that I went to high school with who was, shall we say REALLY BUILT, but she had pock marks on her face from bad acne but the guys still flocked to her.So, you can take is of how stupid people are when it comes to sex, but I took it as an unattractive woman who want's to be loved. And hell has no fury like a woman scorned!
