Top-notch thrilled that still holds up after 20 years (and counting) and is still #1 in psycho chicks (well, maybe #2 after Audition). Could it be the ultimate date movie? Just watch your back...

Anyone want Rabbit Stew?

Seemingly happily married man, Dan Gallagher, gives in to the seductive charm of Alex Forrest and partakes in a night of wild sexual passion with her. Trouble is, is that Alex is a tad unhinged and a woman scorned can be the ultimate nightmare. I have just revisited this monster smash hit from the 80s {highest grossing film of 1987}, and it still packs the same punch as it did back in the late 80s when it not only became a big hit, it also became a cultural phenomenon and one of the most talked about films of the decade. I'm saddened by the relatively average rating here because it's significance and bravery should always be highlighted instead of pointless allegations about it being only of its time.

you sympathize with douglas

An oldie but goodie. The one thing that didn't make sense was that Glenn Close was not very attractive in this movie, though she was crazy as hell. I like how the movie is setup such that even though michael douglas has done a bad thing, it makes you feel like it wasn't all that bad. Thus you really begin to feel his frustration as his confrontation with Close escalates. Even early on you're willing to see douglas do what ever it takes to get that crazy lady out of his life.
