Review of Poison Ivy (1992) by Johanna Steinmetz for Chicago Tribune — 03 Aug 1992
For the most part the actors' work seems incomplete because their characters are cut off before they can fully blossom. It's as if Shea didn't trust her own strengths enough to allow them to carry the movie.
In giving in to the cheap thrills of the psycho genre, she's trashed the very qualities that initially made her work so impressive.
