Hide and Seek
Jennifer Tilly is a half retarded maniac wannabe mother. Daryl Hannah is the forced surrogate mother. Together, they are at each other’s throats.
After visiting a fertility clinic and being informed the treatment was a failure, a couple goes home sad. The husband leaves on a business trip and in his absence the wife is kidnapped and stuck on a basement.
Turns out she was pregnant and the kidnapper works on the fertility clinic. They want to force her to have a baby and claim it was their own.
The husband quickly gives up on finding his wife since her death was staged by burning her car and throwing it off a cliff. His would-be lover says to him quite candidly “let’s fuck”, so he returns to being alone, broken-hearted.
The kidnapper’s wife is a real nut job, and kills him half-way through. When the surrogate mother escapes, she chases her in a skid loader.
All ends well, but long after the film had run its course.
I give it 7 out of C-Sections.
This is my place for ramblings about sequences of images that exploit the human visual limitation know as persistence of vision.
