Day 25 of Horror Month: WHATEVER HAPPENED TO BABY JANE


Sibling rivalry, jealous, violence, anger over unforgiven events... all conspire to bring the world of two sisters into the realm of horror. You can watch this as horror, it works as such being brutal. But, from a simple film making, this work is amazing as an example of getting two rivals and film stars to absorb and reflect their emotions, and aim them towards the other, on screen.

I am not a "fan" of this, it is too intense and mean for my tastes, but I think it is an absolutely amazing film.
