Jenifer Audience Reviews

TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
ChampDavSlim The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.
Suman Roberson It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.
Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
poe426 It's hard when you're a fright fan to see a story you've always loved adapted for The Big Screen- or, worse still, television. Rarely do the filmmakers get it right; the teevee people have an even worse track record. Case in point: JENIFER, the Bruce Jones/Bernie Wrightson classic. I read it when I was a kid, and it made a lasting impression on me. It was truly horrifying. Brilliantly constructed and beautifully rendered, JENIFER, despite its grisly depictions, was one of my all time favorite tales of terror. Along comes Steven Weber and Dario Argento- neither one of whom could conjure forth such a tale on their own- and suddenly JENIFER's rewritten, dumbed down, and foisted upon unsuspecting viewers as part of the "MASTERS" OF HORROR series. Argento has always been a filmmaker whose gifts seem to me to be more on the TECHNICAL end of things; like Kubrick; NOT the Storytelling end of things. It shows here, all too clearly. The sausage-munching scene pretty much says it all.
Brian Bell I enjoyed this episode of The Masters of Horror thoroughly. Dario Argento, Steven Weber and Carrie Flemming made this sick little short story come to life beautifully. I have been a fan of Argento's since I was a young teen (I was born in 1979), and I loved the TV show Wings (with Weber) as a child, so I was curious how these two would team up in this day in age. I have to say, this is probably my favorite episode of MoH in all of season one. It's sick and deranged yet I couldn't stop watching. That's in part due to the super sexy Carrie Flemming as the title character. Jennifer has an amazingly sexy body, but the face of demon (if you will), and this girl has quite an appetite! Weber plays a cop who takes pity on her, and he (Weber) is just great in this... I don't want to say much else, except that this is one of those sicko films that isn't for everybody. However of you are a fan of MoH, Argento or like your horror sexy, sick and twisted - this is one film you should see...
ctomvelu1 I have had trouble watching this one all the way through, but somehow over the years I have finally managed to see the thing in its entirety. A truly sick and disturbing outing by Argento, about an incredibly sexy mute woman (the best kind, for most guys) with a killer face, and I do mean "killer." She just can't stop eating people. A cop befriends her and eventually holes up with her in a remote cabin, leaving behind his family. Nothing he does can stop her from eating people, however. The actress who played this bizarre creature is both highly erotic and scary, which I suspect is how Argento has always viewed women, based on his canon. She is simply amazing. Stephen Weber of WINGS fame plays the obsessed cop. A must-see for fans of ghoul flicks. All others, beware.
fedor8 Dario Argento is one of the worst directors of all time, his movies being notorious for their blatant disregard for logic and the awful acting, so this was a bit of a surprise.Jenny From De Block is a disfigured mutant/hell-beast with strong nymphomaniacal tendencies. Much like the other famous Jennifers, she's pretty much retarded, ugly, and devours males in large quantites. When she isn't busy riding her current owner, she is into cannibalism, castration, and purring. An episode that is as memorable as it is twisted. It goes a bit too far, especially in its depiction of a young girl getting devoured: that was in rather poor taste (no pun intended).The one major flaw is that the alleged "surprise ending" can be nostradamusified just one minute into the episode. Hence why the director opted for the cop to make the rather inexplicable, silly decision to drag Jenny out of the remote cottage so that he can try and kill her out in the open. I guess the cop didn't want to make the cottage any more blood-soaked than it already was... Duh. Dumb.
