Review of Flowers in the Attic (2014) by Adrian R — 14 Apr 2014
Doesn't hold a candle to the books but better than the original movie of 1989. The incest was cut out of the original movie so this version was closer to the book but I found the sibling relationship much easier to read about than to see on screen (yucky).
The actors weren't as attractive as depicted in the book and I found Heather Graham wooden and quite miscast as the Mother. Grandmother (Ellen Burstyn) was the saving grace. Evil with empathy. My children are eager for the sequel, I handed them the book as the story just gets better with each scandalous novel.
3 stars and surprisingly good.
