DERANGED (1987)


  I can't say I enjoyed this one very much. Directed by Chuck Vincent(who's best known for his porn directing) and with a cast made up of porn performers(Veronica Hart, Jamie Gillis, Jerry Butler) this is a weird psychological-type thriller/horror film with some annoying aspects to it. I generally hate movies where stuff happens in a character's mind and this is what we're shown, I also hate movies where stuff happens that makes no logical sense within the movie and that happens here a lot. Veronica Hart(under her real name Jane Hamilton) acts her ass off in the lead role of a gal who's mentally unhinged and schizophrenic. She's attacked in her apartment by a guy in a ski mask and has a miscarriage which leads to her becoming a murderer. The idea to film this movie from a delusional characters point of view is an interesting one but I don't think they really pulled it off very well. Roman Polanski's REPULSION was obviously a big influence here. I think I'll stick with the 70's Ed Gein-inspired DERANGED over this one.
