Review of Hungry Wives (1972) by Heather M — 12 May 2011
George a romero from the early 70s, looks cheap as hell, but it comes off pretty good, and entertaining. jan white playing a bored housewife, with fantasys of her crappy life as she sees it. she also has visions of what could be in herself.
its when her friends introduce her to possibilities of witchcraft, she feels this could be her place in life, this indeed could be a origin story of this womans journey. not gory but phycological to a great deal, and everything pulls together.
jan white is great to watch and she holds her own, while others faulter. its overall a entertaining film in romero who people tend to think of in terms of the living dead.
