The Killing Jar (1994) Reviews
Interesting story,great and very clever Art Direction/Design and some good performances
This film show cases a couple of its acting talent well and has excellent and clever Art Direction/Design.The story line is OK and it has a great twist like Roald Dahl story which makes it well worth the watch. Very Well art directed.Compared with some of the weak blockbuster story lines out there at the moment, for a 45 minute film and interior studio build this does extremely well.Shot on a tight budget over 7 days this film attracted deserved attention at a couple of festivals.The editing did not bother me,though it is a weak area of the piece,as the story line is so unique for its time and the Art Direction and Lighting hold the whole thing in high standard.This film was made in a time when the general Hooyllwod film was of much higher craftsmanship therefore I think this film is meritorious and stands up well in the 21st Century.If anything it was before its time.
Poorly edited, poorly scored, beautiful women.
Pamela Jean Bryant looked very much the Girl Next Door as a Playmate in April of 1978. In this she plays a former porn star the wife of a wealthy criminal defense lawyer who also is a butterfly collector. (the name comes form the jar he uses to kill specimens) He has collected Pamela. She tires of his masochistic sex and then he tires of her. He gets the hots for the girl she thinks is her best friend. He decides to kill his wife...in the midst of all this an obsessed fan of her breaks into the house. Pamela Bryant and her friend, Alina Thompson, are both lovely. The acting is pretty good if overdone at times and the story is kinda predictable. There is plenty of nudity even pubic hair briefly and a fairly intense imagined rape scene. Fans of Miss Bryant will be pleased to know that she is holding up well. IF you ARE a fan the movie it's worth seeing just for that. The editing is so bad that at one point there was a test pattern on the video I saw. The score is good but the music reaches climactic points when nothing is happening....I attribute this to editing. You will be constantly aware of the camera. It zooms in and out and pans constantly. A twist at the end makes it worth watching. I give it 2.5 out of 5.
