Review of The Bad Seed (1956) by Kenny N — 12 Feb 2015
One of the scariest and most disturbing films ever made. Rhoda is underrated when it comes to great film villains. I hesitate to give this masterpiece a full 5 stars because it is too stagy in some parts, a few too many scenes play out like they were meant for Broadway and not the big screen.
But when it comes to evil children (non-supernatural), nobody does it with more authority, skill, and Joie de vivre than Patty McCormack as Rhoda Penmark.
