Review of What's the Matter with Helen? (1971) by Christopher S — 10 Apr 2009
Sometimes cheesy, but still very entertaining psycho-thriller from director Curtis Harrington. Fans of "aging actresses" movies will appreciate the over-the-top macabre theatrics, and both Shelly Winters and Debbie Reynolds are at the top of their melodramatic game - even if it does pale in comparison to Robert Aldrich's masterpieces like 'What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?', which it's clearly trying to emulate.
A whole lot of fun for B-movie fans.
