What a waste of my time!!!

An absolute waste of money

Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

Its not for the pomp and circumstance and hither thee will and stuff. It's because the dialog and characters are as rich as a velvet cake. From the opening scene I was engaged and entertained, the girls sparring with the priest was as exciting as any Bruce Willis Die-hard shoot-out, rappel off the top roof scene. Young blonde beautiful girls are turning up dead and everyone's a suspect. Not because they said something or did something suspicious. They're British men, effete, fops and dandy's they all look suspicious. They all have that longing for something more look on their face, even when they're rogering some tight bird. They still look like they want to be strangling her instead of having sex with her. Soanyhoo in between the knee-high cotton white socks, the mid-thigh schoolgirl outfits, the repressed guys in the woolly-pulleys, dealing with drug addiction, we sort out who's been killing the girls. At one point a hippie with a see through linen shirt and sunglasses to die-for, shows up at the house and peddles drugs to the son. The family is about to throw him out before he tells them the police interrogate end him about the dead girls. They become very curious, and putty in their hands.

A 14-year old Catholic girl Wynne(Jenny Agutter)falls in love with her older adoptive brother.Her crush is growing stronger as she believes that he is the local sex killer of young girls."I Start Counting" is a subtle exploitation film which touches several taboo subject matters including incest,drugs,rape and teenage sexuality.The story is fascinating and often confusing and the film is full of symbolism.The purity and innocence of Wynne slowly becomes corrupted.The girl believes she sees the statue of Jesus in church weeping blood.The climax of "I Start Counting" is very powerful and memorable.Along with "Night After Night After Night" a forgotten genre essential from late 60's.8 out of 10.

This movie is awesome. I don't know why it isn't more popular. the cinematography was fab and the lead actress who played Wynne had this real innocence about her, that was so believable. I thought the storyline was great, it was something unusual. the synopsis based it around Wynne's suspicious feelings towards her brother and the murders, but I found it was about something more than that, about the way different people perceive situations and how different peoples duties and commitments can be seen differently in others eyes.The rest of the cast were great. I loved the few parts of humour in the film, that lifted from the somewhat dark and serious theme, and showed how unusual the film is. the theme song I Start Counting was awesome. It was an awesome name for the filmI'm totally raving about this film man. It freaking rules! I love it!

focuses on the disturbing fear that an attacker can arouse in any decade you care to think of,the fear is heightened by the central child character {played by jenny agutter} troubled by the thought her own father may be the culprit, nasty creepy atmospheric scenes in the woods will have you squirming in anticipation of what might happen,sadly underrated and overlooked.
