Review of Whispers in the Dark (1992) by Kalandra . — 23 Feb 2010
I loved how cheesy and bad this movie is. The script is basically on par with something like Basic Instinct, there is intrigue, murder, sex, and a whole lot of out-of-left-field plot twists. The problem with this one is that it's not nearly exaggerated enough.
Basic Instinct has incredible cinematography and all the performances are really over the top, which makes that movie a blast to watch. Here, everything is played relatively straight, although John Leguizamo tries his best to add some camp-factor.
The only one who really comes out well is Alan Alda, but that's because he can't be bad ever. It's worth it just to see the big reveal in the end, and there's boobies in it, so one star for Alan Alda, a half for boobies, and another half for amazingly ridiculous big end reveal.
