Review of Otis (2008) by Jami L — 22 Mar 2009
Otis has everything he needs for the prom...The cool 80s tunes, the bitchin' Trans Am, the powder blue suit, and the girl shackled to a bed in his basement.
Maybe I am more twisted than I thought, but I loved this movie. It is a dark, disturbing, very funny, and just plain wrong little gem.
I love Illeana Douglas in this type of role, like in To Die For. She is one sick twisted mother in this film, you have to love her. It was good to see Ashley Johnson. That flashed back the 90s for me, and made me feel a little old since I remember her playing little Chrissy Seaver on Growing Pains. She has grown up to be very pretty and a pretty good actress. Bostin Christopher was perfect in the role of Otis. That pathetic, slow psychopath that you both loathe and kind of feel sorry for.
If you are a fan of horror movies or black comedies, Otis should definitely be on your list.
