Reviews

Severance (2006)

By Cynthia Fuchs

Full of energy and appealing recklessness even when the jokes are obvious, the movie isn't so tedious as suggested by its opening scene -- big-breasted women running in abject terror from men with guns. [18 May 2007]

Creep (2004)

By Jarrett Berman

Disdainful until overtaken by desperation, Kate (Franke Potente) appears to be the film's primary 'creep'. [19 January 2006]
