Vicious Kiss -1995- (aka Fauxtal Attraction)

I can't decide whether or not the acting in this movie is on purpose... Angela (Monique Parent) offers to share her money, home and bed with Jason (Danny Fendley) so many times in one scene I think the writers must have ran out of Ideas for Dialogue. Not to mention the fact that the movie has no shame in ripping of Fatal Attraction. It even comes right out and says it when Lisa (Margaux Hemmingway) asks Jason if Angela is has a "fatal attraction" for him. Incidently, as much as I love Angela's campy femme fatale, I have to hand it to Margaux. Her performance had such a charming honesty that made it stick with me despite the quality of the material. I felt sorry for her when the movie needed me to, and it felt so genuine when she said "I've never held ten thousand dollars...I want to see was it feels like." I also find it amusing that Angela shares the same name as Sleepaway Camp's twisted sister. I better stop before I figure out what else it rips off. For all it's blatant rip-offsploitationess, it is entertaining in a remarkably cheesy way.
