Curtains

This derivative Canadian thriller plays like a distaff version of Samuel Fuller's cult classic SHOCK CORRIDOR fused rather crudely to a standard mad-slasher plot. The story takes place primarily at the country villa of a sleazy horror film director (scenery-chomping John Vernon), where auditions for the title role of his new film Audra are taking place. The casting session is called after the film's intended star had herself committed to an asylum in order to properly research her Frances Farmer-type role, then found herself unable to get out. It comes as little surprise, then, that the six actresses vying for the plum role in her absence are not long for this world, as a witch-masked marauder is wandering the premises with some well-honed implements.

    Tried to do review but didn't save so not going to say much in this one. It was a dull, lame film with a familiar story line. Has been de-classed from a 18 to 15 certificate. So be warned.
