INDELIBLE SCENE(S):
- Sundance the horse freaking out at Rachel’s big show
- Rachel’s speedy transformation from awkward teen stage to full-blown Garbage Pail Kid face
- Julia seducing the father
- Rachel and Julia’s throwdown in the darkroom
- Julia’s bewitching color contacts
This movie is super fun. It’s not my favorite Wes Craven TVM (I reserve that for the thoughtful and underrated Chiller), but it’s never not interesting. EVER. Plus, didn’t Lee Purcell go on to play one of the mom’s in Valley Girl, like, 3 years later?!?
And in indelible scenes, you may want to mention ANYTIME Fran Drescher was in shorts. Her pantyhose were something else!
I’m so loving all the TV Movie reviews. I think you’ll agree, but this is where I got most of my trauma as a child! KEEP IT UP!
I love this movie too. Own the VHS. Has anyone seen the new Modern cover art? It never mentions this is a TV movie from 25 years ago! They act like its a new release starring linda Blair and directed by Wes Craven! Most people probably rented this, popped it on and went “What the Hell is THIS????” I have a soft spot for Linda Blair and TV movies though so I was hooked.
Fran Drescher! OhmyGAWWWWWWWWWWWWWD!
