Review of Kissed

Kissed (1996)
6/10
Poetic despite subject matter

Warning: Spoilers
For a film thats about a female necrophiliac its surprising to discover how well made and gentle this film is. Film does a good job of allowing the viewers to really get to know this person and actress Molly Parker seems to be an excellent choice to play the lead. She conveys the very independent spirit and gentle nature of this woman. The one flaw that stands out is.....*SPOILER ALERT*...the reason for Matt's behavior as he tries to figure out why his girlfriend is a necrophiliac. His ultimate act comes as no surprise and seems forced. I do think this part of the script hurts the film and kept this from being more respectable. It certainly is a whole universe better than David Cronenberg's "Crash" which didn't have the gentle way of handling its disturbing subject matter. Its worth a look.
