Amer... not just pretty pictures
 

Very good review.

I enjoyed it a little more I think. The visuals were so oddly striking, I found myself literally mesmerized and couldn't take my eyes off the screen.

I was alternately aroused disturbed at any given moment. While it did play out its Goddard tricks pretty early on, you have give it credit for not being boring despite the fact that there were probably 8 pages of dialogue in the entire film. And there was ALWAYS something to look at and some of those images (for better or worse) have been tattooed into my memory. I will probably blush the next time I see a blue dress on a pretty girl.

Was this a good movie? Not sure... Jury's still out. Did it stay with me for a week afterward. Um...yes.

Agreed: searingly memorable. Just a little problematic in some areas (for me, anyway). Still -- a huge, and very welcome improvement over the torture porns and horror classics remakes!
