3.0 out of 5 stars AKA repetitive concussion syndrome, October 26, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Amnesia [VHS] (VHS Tape)

The movie is a guilty pleasure. It has the crazed, frenetic, incoherent quality of being trapped in a bad dream. The characters are completely absurd - Canadian ex-Supermodel Dara Tomanovich as an impossibly beautiful small town teacher(?!), Sally Kirkland as smoldering volcano of middle aged lust, Ally Sheedy (at that time in the grips of an eating disorder and looking Karen Carpenter thin) as a repressed latent lesbian, John Savage as an amoral horndog insurance investigator. Nicholas Walker (bearing a vague resemblance to Thorn Birds era Richard Chamberlain) plays an unlikable priest / object of female lust who soon takes more shots to the head than Wile E. Coyote, developing the title disorder. Circumstances rapidly spin out of control, dizzying the poor head trauma patient. The audience shares his disorientation. On a literal dramatic level this film is not very good. But forget that. It is weird fun. Imagine getting tanked on cough syrup, then riding a roller coaster. It is like that.
