Amateur movie with Big budget
... View MoreThe film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
... View MoreJust intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

... View MoreEven by the standards of the genre, The Girl With the Hungry Eyes is thin gruel indeed. Adele Rein plays Kitty, a sweet young thing who's been seduced by a predatory lesbian (was there any other kind in the pre-Stonewall era?) named Tigercat (Cathy Crowfoot). Deep down, Kitty is an All-American heterosexual gal, as we see in the film's first set piece, where she engages in a roll in the grass with a lucky motorist named Tom. After Tigercat kills Tom in a fit of jealousy, Kitty begins to question her sexual identity, and after meeting a handsome young chap (played, of course, by director-writer-editor-jack of all trades William Rotsler) reasserts her femininity via a series of incredibly boring and unsexy petting scenes. The film doesn't even include a single lesbian sex scene--the most we get is a still of the two leading ladies in bed--and is determinedly conservative in every aspect of its storytelling. If not for a few good scenes on the 101-Barham Blvd. interchange and a very cute Corvette, this would get no more than a '1' on IMDb's rating scale.
