If there is one genre I truly love, it would have to be the deranged psycho/victim-never-saw-it-comin’ kill fest. Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned, or as Chicago put it, “He had it comin’”. I will warn you now: there are a lot of SPOILERZ up in here.
My Top Five Crazy Bitches
1. Norma Desmond - Sunset Blvd.
She is the ULTIMATE.
2. Alex Forrest - Fatal Attraction
"I won't be ignored, Dan"
3. Carrie
Need i say more? (besides that we should have seen Columbine coming)
4. Baby Jane Hudson - Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?
5. Joan Crawford - Mommy Dearest
"NO WIRE HANGERS, EVERRRRRRRR!!!"
SOOOO many to choose from, here are some:
Ellen Berent - Leave Her to Heaven
Mrs. Danvers - Rebecca
Norman Bates - Psycho
Annie Wilkes - Misery
Madison Bell - Swimfan (or Swimf@n)
good shit:
Esther - Orphan
Not even M.Night Shyamalan would try and pull of this twist:
AND OF COURSE,
Lisa - OBSESSED
Probably one of the finest uses of suspense since Hitchcock:
When searching for a classic movie involving a psycho, look out for ones where the unsuspecting family lives in a modern glass house. This lets us know in advance that our crazy bitch is going through a window.
