Wicked Reviews:
Wickedly Cool Movie 
2008-04-27 - It's hard to imagine Julia Styles shot this just before "10 Things I Hate About you." Although it was easy to figure out the mystery it's still a wickedly good flick.
I love this movie!! 
2008-02-29 - This is a great B movie that I can watch again and again! Yes, it's B quality, but in a good way. The plot, characters, acting, sets, costumes, are what makes this movie work. It's a tongue in cheek Greek tradgedy, and should be viewed and enjoyed as such.
Very Dark Story 
2007-12-11 - I watched this movie on the LMN network so I don't have the dvd but I figured I'd write a review.
I gave it 3 stars mainly for the gorgeous main character. She is a very seductive teenager and we find out later that she went all the way with her own father almost immediately after the mother was bludgeoned to death. And it's not like the father forces the issue. Rather she tries to become the mother. It's very strange.
Is the idea really that the father had been molesting her for years ? I don't know. That's one possible interpretation.
She spends most of the movie running around in skimpy clothes.
The story itself is completely rediculous so if you want to watch a movie that is even remotely possible forget it.
But sometimes people like to watch movies just for fun so in that case you may enjoy it. Even though the story itself isn't realistic the human emotions are.
To tell you the truth I'm still not sure what is going on with this movie. If the ending means what I think it does that makes it even more rediculous.
For one thing what the ending implies would not even be physically possible.
There's only about 10 main characters in the entire movie and by the end about half of them are dead so you start to run out of possible candidates for who the villain really is.

Bad Seed Plus Sex 
2006-08-15 - Girl loves her father too well and does bizarre things because of it. If you like happy endings, skip this one.
Intriuging 
2006-02-24 - I am a great fan of Julia Stiles and she really keeps your
interested in this film. All through it her excellent acting
ability comes across and the ending absolutely blows you away.
