Poison Ivy: Review

Drew Barrymore made the transition to adult roles in this chilling sex thriller from a pair of Roger Corman alums: Writer-director Katt Shea and her then husband, producer and co-writer Andy Ruben. Barrymore stars as a murderous Lolita who insinuates herself into the family of her new best friend (Sara Gilbert) mainly by seducing her father (Tom Skerritt). It sounds lurid, and it is, but Shea, best known for the underrated The Rage: Carrie 2, emphasizes mood and characterization over cheap thrills. Look for Leonardo DiCaprio in a bit part.
