My Rating: 3/5
To make up for lack of posts the last few days (due to busy Christmas preparations), you lucky readers get three in a row tonight. The first of which is the ultimate roommate thriller, Single White Female. After a fallout with her boyfriend, Allison (Fonda) places a personal ad for a new female roommate and finds what she's looking for in Hedra (Jason Leigh), or so she thinks.
The film does a good job of lulling you into a false sense of security, however I knew it was all going down hill when the dog got involved. It's always a rule in my books, you can kill people; it makes for a good story, but don't touch the dog, that's never OK!
This is quite a thrilling film, well acted especially by Jennifer Jason Leigh, who transitions from shy, quiet roommate to possessive and psychotic brilliantly. A lot of clever twists and a satisfying end.
