Review of Phobia (1980) by Andrew F — 24 Apr 2011
The first truly bad film I've ever seen from John Huston. The whole thing is executed without even a hint that this is the man who two previous films were "Man Who Would Be King" and "Wise Blood.
" Working from a script/story by Ronald Shusett and Gary Sherman (of "Alien"/"Dead & Buried" fame), let's just say I'm much more disappointed with the results here than if it'd merely been a lackluster John Huston film.
Full disclosure - the only way to watch this other than VHS is by downloading a copy recorded off television that constantly has tracking marks on it from whatever garbage VCR recorded it. Somehow, this still hasn't been released on DVD.
Go figure.
