4.0 out of 5 stars campy, trashy fun, September 23, 1999

By A Customer

Although this movie is poorly acted, poorly directed, and poorly written, it is a blast to watch! Before Elizabeth Berkley and "Showgirls", there was this little gem from Golden Globe Winner Pia Zadora. The movie is laughable but a great party movie. Invite friends over and enjoy. This is the type of movie that is SO BAD, it is GOOD! The ending, and Pia's wonderfully campy dialogue during her Oscar acceptance speech are classic. I recommend this movie for people who wish to just have a fun time, and not have to think when viewing.

4.0 out of 5 stars Bad, but a wonderful camp classic, July 10, 2002

By	Calle (Sweden) - See all my reviews

I like b-movies and after reading a lot of reviews about how awful this movie is, I got curious and bought it. The movie smells low budget but what makes it bad is a silly screenplay and directing like in an amateur movie. It also has some bad acting. Pia Zadora isn't capable of making a believable portrayal of the the heroine, Jerilee (who could with this screenplay?), but she is really charming and on a camp level, her performance is wonderful.

This is a pretty bad movie, but it's also very entertaining. Everybody who likes campy movies, like I do, should own a copy of this movie. I've seen it three times in six months without getting the least bored. If you like campy cult movies - Buy it!

5.0 out of 5 stars CULT: Pia Zadora is sensational, March 13, 2001

By A Customer

THE LONELY LADY is without a doubt one of the greatest film ever made and definitly a Classic. Pia Zadora, who won a golden globe award for her great performance in "Butterfly", is absolutly fabulous as Jerilee. Get into this mezmerising and unique journey. You'll never forget it.
